    It really is amazing how much they can move in and out of a port like that.

    My dad bought a Unimog a few years back and it shipped to that same port. It's a beautiful area and Market street is really nice too.

      How'd that process go. He had someone there to take possession at the port for him? Did it come in a normal container?

    • @MrSapper21
      @MrSapper21 8 лет назад

      The person that he bought it from did a lot of exporting so the process was pretty easy. We rented a Uhaul with a vehicle trailer and drove it down that morning from NC. We went to the importer/exporters office, dad signed a few papers, and we drove to the port with a huge file of paperwork. Showed some papers to the port officials and loaded up the unimog. As far as the container is concerned, at the time, as long as you could fit it, you could ship it. Weight was never an issue, it was all about the size. I will be buying a G wagon wolf in the near future but i will not be bringing it back on a trailer. I'm taking a cab from the airport to the port. Cant wait to drive my new G wagen!

    You wouldn't expect port operations to be "sexy" enough that there'd be commercial tours of such facilities, but that actually was pretty interesting. I take it this tour was something done by the State of SC?

      There's no way they would run tours here. I was putting in silt fence there about a year ago and I wasn't even allowed inside the actual port. I had to stay on the other side of a tall ass fence. with razor wire. and they hired us haha

      @@ThePaintballfreak97 they actually do quarterly tours there in Charleston. They only allow 13 on the tour. Talked to the lady that organizes the few tours they conduct, she also told me, about a vessel tracking app. I used it to watch the msc Francesca come in to the harbor under the Ravenel bridge. We parked walked up the bridge and she floated underneath us. So cool to see something that size and not really make a peep coming into the Wando terminal. I hope to go back and do the tour.

    I've noticed on the shipping containers they have various different names on them (cosco,maersk,msc "just to name a few") are those the names of shipping companies or something?

    it makes me wonder how the crane just drop the container on the trailer and the truck goes without securing the container and it doesn't fall off.

    • @rustbucket1728
      @rustbucket1728 2 года назад

      The container is loaded onto chassis called "bomb carts". They have sides so the container won't slide off...hopefully. Usually the only times you see a road truck being loaded or unloaded by a ship-to-shore crane is when there are explosives, 1.1 or 1.2, or a "hot" load.
