Under VGM, the shipper should avoid overloading the container. How to maximize the rational use of the box while ensuring that the VGM weighing is effective? Let's take a look at the correct loading method of the container.

First, the reasonable distribution of weight

According to the volume and weight of the goods, the strength of the outer packaging, and the nature of the goods, the goods with firm and heavy weight of the outer packaging are placed underneath, and the weight of the goods is uniformly distributed on the bottom of the tank. Otherwise, it may cause the bottom of the box to fall off or the bottom beam to bend. If the center of gravity of the entire container is offset, it is possible to tilt the container when lifting with the claws.

Second, the necessary padding of the goods

When loading goods, it is necessary to make the necessary cushioning according to the strength of the packaging. For goods with fragile outer packaging and fragile goods, the cushioning material should be lining to prevent the goods from colliding with each other. In order to fill the gap between the goods and between the goods and the side walls of the container, it is necessary to insert a backing material, such as a covering material, between the goods.

Third, the reasonable fixation of goods

After the goods are packed, there is usually a gap. Due to the presence of voids, the cargo in the tank must be fixed to prevent the cargo from collapsing and breaking due to the swinging hull during transportation, especially during sea transportation.

1. When packing, support the goods with support such as square wooden strips.

2. If there is a gap between the cargo or the side wall of the container, some square wood can be used for horizontal reinforcement. In addition, items such as stuffing, cushions or wedges can be inserted to prevent the goods from being displaced during transportation.

3. Bundle and reinforce the goods using ropes, belts and other rigging or equipment to ensure that the goods will not be damaged by the movement of the truck.

Fourth, the reasonable mixing of goods

In order to ensure the safety of container cargo during transportation, on the one hand, it is necessary to do reinforcement work, on the other hand, special attention must be paid to the arrangement of goods. Some mixes that may cause the goods to deteriorate or be affected should be avoided. The details are as follows:

1. Dry goods cannot be mixed with wet goods during transportation, mainly to avoid moisture and mildew of the goods. In addition, in actual work, if the dryness of the goods is very high, it is necessary to add appropriate desiccant or other drying methods.

2. Normal goods should not be mixed with goods with strong odor or other pungent odor to prevent the quality of the product from being affected by the odor.

3. Any goods should not be mixed with powdered goods. Powdery goods are not stable enough during transportation and are prone to explosion. Separate loading can effectively reduce the possibility of such problems.

4. There must be no mixing between dangerous goods, mainly because the performance of various dangerous goods is different, and their various rescue measures are also different. If mixed, many may cause secondary dangers.

5, the packaging of different goods can not be mixed, must be separately loaded to facilitate the usual transportation.
