The logistics and transportation industry, one of the key sectors encouraged by the state for development, has penetrated into various sectors with economic growth. Plastic turnover crates can help businesses achieve standardized logistics and offer significant advantages in transportation, storage, loading and unloading, handling, packaging, distribution, processing, and information management.
Precautions for Plastic Turnover Crates in Logistics and Transportation:
1. Plastic turnover crate stowage regulations must be met. For example, the number and weight of each plastic turnover crate in a shipment must be consistent; no more or less is acceptable. Different consignees and different cargoes cannot be mixed in a single plastic turnover crate. The crate must be fully loaded, stacked flat, with all four sides flat, corners at 90 degrees, and the top level.
In addition to the original packaging markings, the gross weight, destination port, number of crates, and number of crates must be printed on both sides of the plastic turnover crate where the forklift forks are inserted. The cargo weight of each plastic turnover crate must not exceed the specified maximum gross weight.
2. Freight for plastic containerized goods is calculated based on the gross weight and volume of the loaded container, less the container's weight and height. This means the container itself is free of freight.
3. There are certain restrictions on the cargo that can be transported in plastic containers. Not all goods can be transported in containers. Suitable cargo for container transport is limited to packaged miscellaneous goods. Bulk, unpacked, overweight, overlong, or refrigerated goods cannot be transported in containers. Two dangerous goods with different properties must never be transported in the same container.
4. When transporting goods in plastic containers, the phrase "Containerized Transport" must be indicated on all transport documents.
5. Each container must be securely strapped and possess sufficient strength and stability to withstand normal maritime risks, loading and unloading operations, and movement, while also being able to withstand certain pressures.
