Container services

Container devanning and cross-dock in Māngere

20ft and 40ft containers unloaded in our own yard, counted against your packing list, then stored, split or sent straight back out. Every container is devanned by our own in-house team, never temporary devanning crews, so the people unloading your goods know your products and our processes.

What we handle

Palletised containers

Forklift unloaded, checked and put away the same day where possible. Less than container loads (LCL) handled too.

Hand-stacked containers

Hand unloaded, sorted by SKU and built onto pallets, or floor stacked.

Cross-dock

Palletised or unpalletised, from full containers, hand-stacked or palletised, or less than container loads. Checked, sorted by order or destination and dispatched, with no storage needed.

Project splits

One container split into separate jobs, sites or customers, each with its own paperwork.

Bulky and two-person items

Furniture, lighting and oversized goods handled with care and photographed.

MPI inspections

Our Transitional Facility status means containers can be devanned and inspected on site. More

Our yard guarantee

If we accept a container booking and then can't take it because our yard is full, we pay the resulting detention or demurrage. Not you.

Booking a container

  • Give us 48 hours notice of arrival
  • Send the packing list and container number
  • Tell us how you want it received: stored, split or cross-docked
  • We confirm the slot and report back with counts and photos
