Delivery Guide – check sheet

- Please tell us if the container has to be lifted over buildings, walls or any obstructions as this may prohibit us from delivery.

- Tell us if you want containers placed inside a building as access and height clearance restrictions apply and may incur additional charges.

- It is your responsibility to ensure your area is level and has hard standing capacity. If the ground is soft or uneven, we may be able to provide sleepers as a base, but you need to inform us in advance. In certain circumstances if the site conditions are poor we may not be able to deliver your container and may have to abort the delivery at your cost so please ensure we are made aware of every eventuality possible.

- Do not choose a location that blocks drain or fire exits. If units need to be repositioned after delivery, there will be an extra charge.

- Do not wait until after the driver leaves to check that delivery is to your satisfaction. He will require a signature to confirm that the unit is in the correct position, the doors operate correctly, locks work (if supplied) and there are no defects with the equipment. A method Statement can be supplied prior to delivery, if required.
