That increased my container-knowledge by 600%!
I think Raul IS a teacher!
I drive the straddle carriers that move the containers on and off your lorrys. I found it really interesting and helpful seeing things from your point of view.
Nice!
Can you be a bit more gentle Steve...we know you're a good shot like ma man 😂😂
I found this video whilst trying to explain to a new driver how to do containers. I got my license just before coving so I had no training at all. I wish I'd seen this when I first started! Only other thing I would add is that at the back of the trailer is a bar that should be extended when carrying 45 foot containers. I thank you very much for the video
Haven't done containers for a few years
Thanks for the refresher. It all came back thanks to this video.
Returning to trucking after a few years. Very helpful videos. Thank you. And you’re a good man too. Bonus.
Never knew there was so much to containers! Assumed they just got dumped on and taken off. Very interesting and well explained thx.
Thank you - really enjoy these container vlogs.
Got my test on Monday and giving containers some serious consideration as a first job if all goes well. These videos are immensely helpful! You've also convinced me in another video that agency might be the best way for me to go instead of staying in my current company which would be supermarket work and involve tipping pallets and cages all day myself.
Could you recommend any agencies that do container work around Liverpool? Only if you're allowed, of course. I'm also considering Evri and Amazon. Been watching a few others that do those, it seems good too. Long days tho. I won't mind doing the longer days as long as I can get around 30-48 hours, 3-4 days per week. That's ideal for me. 4 on 4 off also sounds good.
Glad to see you're often around my part of the world.
Hopefully see you out there soon!
Always wondered how the Skeli trailer works , really great tutorial 👍👍👍
Raul, thanks you, that was very informative. Hey, I bet the guy who tells all new drivers to go 2nd left at the docks is having a laugh, especially when people mention it on RUclips! LOL
Oh i think so to. Don't know where he sees that 2nd left cuz it's just not there 😄😄
Great video, very informative especially for new drivers getting into container work.
Thank you! I’m abaout to go tomorrow for the first time on container job as a newly driver on hgv! Very helpful for me 🎉🎉🎉
very informative video i watch it in i get idea how to the works👍
Yes, the 45 has the locks in the same position like a 40 but the 45 container extends 2.5“ past the locks obviously. This means it pokes out at the end. To ensure the whole vehicle now is not too long, the container is moved forward a bit to be within the length limit. Fun fact there are 45 container with rounded ends to make sure you the tractor doesn’t hit the container in sharp bends.
Thanks
No it doesn't. You shrink the trailer to pin 3 marked yellow for a 45 and then use the front twist locks marked yellow.. YOU DO NOT USE 40 POSITIONING 4 ON A 45. You use position 3.
Very useful video,it's my 2nd day on containers job and it helps me a lot,thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome! I came here to learn about containers as a stacker operator but this gave me more respect for truck operators
Thank you!
Great explanation. I drove truck for 10 years. 6 on tankers and 4 on general haulage. I never did containers and have never used a twist lock.
Thanks. Yes quite a simple rudimental lock for such weights but it's just gravity doing all the work 😁
Great vlog Raul really enjoyed and so informative The non HGV drivers like me can appreciate what you have to go through.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you with your help i will now be able to work with containers.
Explained very well 👍👍
Thankyou. I start containers after just getting my lorry licence nice little insight.
Best of luck!
It was very interesting to watch thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching
Weird that I’m watching your video this morning where you do Eldapoint and then on to Seaforth dock because this morning I’m about to do it in reverse. I’m lifting off at Seaforth and then lifting on on at Eldapoint. Good video for anyone wondering how containers work. 👍
Raul, you are a great teacher!!
Glad you think so!
brilliant mate...whatever they are paying you, its not enough
Love it lad at least you share your knowledge 😇
Glad you enjoyed it

Very well explained video, I am starting my first job with a container carrier and am glad to have found this video,
Thanks and best of luck 👍

Good man pleas put more video

You explained the slider very well Liverpool container port has changed massively since I used to go in there it’s a lot better now great video
Thank you!
Great video very interesting as am thinking about agency work at the moment so your video are great thanks again.👍
I now feel like a container expert because of this youtube video- i watched a skydiving video before this and also feel like a pro at that too lol
So you have to have it in position 3 for 45 foot. Position 3 for single 20 foot. Position 4 for 40 foot.
Yes correct thanks
Very useful. Thanks. And a great video in its own right. Will look out for you on T1 pad.
Perfect information, thank you 👍🏽
Great video, thanks! Very insightful! By the way, I have noticed a MASSIVE improvement in your confidence and communication ability in comparison to some of your older videos. Really well done!
Awesome! Thank you!

Thank you!
Hi Raul. Thanks for your videos about how to do things with containers. I have just started on them this week and if it wasn't for your videos. I wouldn't of known what to do. Cheers mate
Glad it helped
Perfect, 👍👌👌👌👌
Excellent video Raul on container Demonstration and keep up the good work 💯 that you are doing 😊
Thank you!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP! 🤜🤛
Great Video 👍 mucho gusto lol. Hello form ElPolaco.
Another good vlog mate👍👍👍
Scania, feeling the power in that beast 💥💥💥😂😂😂
Thanks for the tips, was stranded on how to load a 45 feet cargo 🚀
Thanks
Can I just add that when you go to collect your 45' foot container - even after you have correctly set up your skelly trailer - do make sure the when the crane is overhead lowering your container onto your skelly, make sure you aim your lorry (shunt) for the right holes because the chances are you have been used to loading 40 footers and it's easy to expect the 45 to slot onto the same twist locks which it doesn't.....
Thank you!
Excellent Info Raul.
👍👍👍
Thank you very good vlog
Good video mate very informative, cheers
Good job man
Thank you 👍
Brilliant 👍
Wish I could get a start on boxes, I'd move to my brothers in Liverpool, then hope you'd take me on for training Boss Man 👍👍
Absolutely 😄 nice and easy work
Good one learnt a lot
Glad to hear that
Thanks mate. Can you done all the ports instruction please? :)
not really. filming in the ports is not allowed
@@a320nick thx Nick
Brilliant videos, keep them coming 👍
Thanks, will do!
Better explanation than I did it mate, great video 👍🏼
Thanks Dazzer 👍👍👍
Great, how do you know the length of your container that you are picking up from the docks??
Great question. Before you go in the docks your transport office must provide the booking number, container number and SIZE, aswell the receivers name and address. Customs can pull you in for checks right after you go out of the docks and you need all this information for them
Thank you for that
thanks mate that's great, do you like container work ?
Yes mate verry much 👍👍
Brilliant tutorial. Always wondered how these work. Do u get much handballing work with containers?
No you never do handball at all on containers. Driver never touches the stuff. But yes there are jobs where it takes 8h for them to unload. Easiest job ever.
good man Raul
Thought you streched the back trailer crash bar when carrying the 45 ft .Did a week on containers nice refresher.
You are right you have to stratch the back underrun bar
Very insightful I'm thinking doing it for gold star in leeds
Best of luck 👍
can hauling at at it's best my grandpa used to pull container
What about 30ft container?
I have never understood why you cant run laden with the trailer shortened?? it takes up less room on the road and is easier to get round corners!
Hi Raul great video, I really like container videos for some reason.
Do you think there is good money to be made as an owner driver on containers? If I had my own Operators License and had my transport managers qualification. Thinking £16k to 20k to buy a unit with around 350K miles on it (Range T, Actros, XF etc). Hire a skelly trailer for £100ish a week.
I have looked a lot online and it's mixed comments, the ones that are negative seem to be owner operators so putting a payed driver in the truck and they don't actually own it as it's on lease!
I reckon if a genuine owner driver who owns the unit and drives it it may be worthwhile?
Interested to know your thoughts as you have run your own trucks before I gather.
Hi pal. To be honest i don't think it's worth to have just 1 unit. But it's a good place to start. I'm sure in notime you will be having 4 or 5. Sure there is good money. But at the beginning you will be running around like crazy to get things going. Been there done that. Now i just have other plans for the future 👍👍👍
@@Raul689 Thanks for the reply Raul 👍.
It would be just one truck and me driving it, I couldn't be doing with the bother of finding and managing employees, not looking to make a fortune either just a reasonable living and a bit of independence.
I'm currently an owner driver courier in a LWB van and often tramp Monday to Friday, a truck would be a more comfortable option. I'm just not sure there is the financial reward to justify the time and expense to upgrade to a 44t owner driver.
Cheers again.
Yes the question below how do you know the length of the trailer great video thanks
Before you go in the docks your transport office must provide the booking number, container number and SIZE, aswell the receivers name and address. Customs can pull you in for checks right after you go out of the docks and you need all this information for them
@@Raul689 thanks very interesting
If you are dropping a box at the port and collecting another, do you have to re weigh after dropping first one off and before you collect the next ?
No. All the boxes are weighted on entry only. From there they will know the total weight on your way out
SAFE ROAD!
Hi Raul,i am 70 yrs old i am from Liverpool L.F.C fan , OK no crap from you Mancs or Cockneys 😁.I have worked out of Seaforth/Felixtowe ports back in 1975 to can't remember no i don't have dementure i still got my class 1 H.G.V licence YEA 😜.Unfortunatley disclamers are needed not because of you'r knowlege but because of the minority of dickheads out there that can't understand commonsense.YOU matey amongst a few other H.G.V driver youtubers are the best info drivers i have ever come across ,and at my age and experience of driving and still can do the job i think i can say to all newbies this man Raul is spot-on with knowledge.👌
Thank you John much appreciated sir 👍👍👍👍👍
Quick question why do you pull away before putting twist locks into locking position after having container loaded ??
It's not allowed to go in to the crane area. So you have to pull out and then go do the twist locks.
@@Raul689 Thanks for reply stay safe buddy
Was that eldapoint in Kirkby where you got the box taken off
👍
Hi Raul' great video mate, just one quick question, how do you go about getting your hands on a site card for the dock.
Hi pal. I don't know how you do it now, i got mine i think 3 years ago and it was £45 something like that. I think you can get it first time you go in the docks or maybe online now. Cheers
You press no card at where he swiped his card and they will tell you to go to the office with your license and the fee
This is very helpful thanks Raul. To confirm, is it postion 3 for a full 20ft, postion 4 for a empty 20ft and postion 4 for full/empty 40ft? Thanks
For the 20ft boxes they can go in 3 or 4 empty or loaded. Might be better in position 3 to go by the book.Not to much of a difference. Position 3 for 45 and position 4 for 40ft
@@Raul689 so I’m theory could run in position 4 for all 20 40 and 45 foot ?
@@neilstewart2036 in theory yes. in both 3th or 4th position
Don't know how you do it Raul I could hardly keep up
Thank you lad
even after 13 years of driving these road hogs , companies still say 'do you have experience in containers'? ,, like it some sort mystery it cant be learned in a few hours 👀
that is true
In north America there ar 53ft boxs
Nice
rigids are easy to drive but loading and unloading is shit
Great vlog mate as always........stay safe
