How to use

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Place the Skates

  1. Line up your winching truck or trailer in front of the container.
  2. Put the skates flat on the ground right under the front corners of the container.

Step 2: Slide the Container Onto the Skates

  1. Hook up your tow chains or winch cables to the container.
  2. Start pulling slowly so the front edge of the container slides directly on top of the skates.
  3. CRITICAL STEP: Make sure the container sits squarely on the middle of the skates. Clear away any big rocks or debris in front of them so they can slide smoothly.

Step 3: Move and Remove

  1. Winch or drag the container to its final spot. The skates will drastically reduce friction, making it slide easily across asphalt, concrete, or dirt.
  2. Once done, let the tension off your cables and pull the skates out.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are container skid slides used for?

They are low-friction skates that let you slide and reposition a heavy shipping container instead of dragging it. Placed under the container, they reduce the friction between the container and the surface so it moves more smoothly, which makes loading and handling easier in shipping yards, warehouses, and other industrial settings.

What are the skid slides made of, and how durable are they?

Each skate is made from extruded recycled plastic, which is rot-resistant and impervious to oil, grease, and wear. That makes them well suited to harsh environments where moisture, spills, and heavy use would degrade lesser materials. At just 4 lbs each, they are lightweight and easy to handle without sacrificing strength.

How big are the skid slides?

Each skate measures 11.75 inches long by 5.5 inches wide by 2.69 inches high and weighs 4 lbs. The compact, low-profile size makes them easy to position under a container and simple to store or carry between jobs.

Where are container skid slides most useful?

They are built for heavy-duty applications like industrial settings, shipping yards, and warehouses, anywhere you need to move or load heavy containers efficiently. They are especially handy for repositioning a container a short distance on a hard surface, reducing strain on both your equipment and your crew.
