To become eligible to handle 40 ft. containers for shipping at ports, movers typically need to obtain the necessary certifications and licenses. Here are the steps that movers usually follow to become eligible to handle 40 ft. containers:
Obtain a CDL (Commercial Driver’s License): A CDL is required to operate a commercial vehicle, such as a tractor-trailer, which is typically used to transport 40 ft. containers. To obtain a CDL, movers must pass a written test and a skills test.
Complete a training program: Movers may need to complete a training program that focuses on container handling, including loading and unloading techniques, securing cargo, and container weight distribution.
Obtain certifications: Depending on the specific requirements of the port, movers may need to obtain certifications such as the TWIC (Transportation Worker Identification Credential) and the Hazmat (Hazardous Materials) endorsement.
Obtain insurance: Movers may need to obtain liability and cargo insurance to protect themselves and their clients in case of any accidents or damages.
Maintain compliance: Movers must comply with all regulations and safety standards set by the port and the relevant governing bodies, such as the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
By following these steps, movers can become eligible to handle 40 ft. containers for shipping at ports. It’s important to note that the specific requirements may vary depending on the port and the region, so movers should check with the relevant authorities to ensure they meet all the necessary criteria.
