Signage on a local gas station pump. I'm thinking “Isn't a car's gas tank a portable container?” Then, I honk my horn • Cleveland Ohio, USA • 2014 • iPhone 4s with native camera in HDR mode. Photoshop Elements.
These are images taken on the jettey at the colombo port shortly after this damaged 20 foot container was removed from the vessel, "Hatsu Smart". Oil can be seen dripping from the bottom of the container and there is a massive hole on the top.

Added this container by path to the front door. Brings out the eggplant color of the front door, the brushed nickel house numbers, ties in the pink color from the pink flowers from the parking strip
Each container replaces, at a minimum, one truck on the highway. Hence, each car here replaces at least two trucks (the containers are double stacked). The entire train replaces about 250-300 trucks.
Hong Kong Transport - Trucks
The Hong Kong Truck Culture
The number of Trucks, Vans* and Special Purpose Vehicles (Light, Medium & Heavy) registered + licenced in Hong Kong seems to fluctuate between 120,000 - 125,000 vehicles and presumably new trucks registered are offset by old trucks being retired or sold over the border in China.
*Vans are classified as Light Goods Vehicles and are not shown in this album
In Hong Kong Trucks are classified as GOODS VEHICLES By the Transport Department - see below
☛Light Goods Vehicles - Goods vehicles of permitted gross vehicle weight not exceeding 5.5 tonnes.
☛Medium Goods Vehicles - Goods vehicles of permitted gross vehicle weight exceeding 5.5 tonnes but not exceeding 24 tonnes.
☛Heavy Goods Vehicles - Goods vehicles of permitted gross vehicle weight exceeding 24 tonnes but not exceeding 38 tonnes.
The major truck types you tend to see in urban areas are trucks carrying construction materials or waste, dump trucks, concrete mixers and all sizes of delivery trucks... outside of the urban areas it is container trucks and large trucks carrying construction materials.
The following brands of Trucks can be seen on the streets of Hong Kong and include:-
Beiben ✚ Bell ✚ CAMC ✚ CNHTC ✚ DAF ✚ Dennis ✚ Dong Feng ✚ FAW ✚ Fuso ✚ Foton ✚ Ford ✚ Hino ✚ Howo ✚ Hyundai ✚ Isuzu ✚ Iveco ✚ JAC ✚ Kato ✚ KIA ✚ Liebherr ✚ MAN ✚ Mercedes Benz ✚ Mitsubishi ✚ Nissan ✚ Renault ✚ Scania ✚ Shacman ✚ Sinotruk ✚ Suzuki ✚ Toyota ✚ UD ✚ Volvo ✚ Zoomlion
Hong Kong is a brand conscious place even for trucks (!) hence the popularity of the European brands, Scania and Man are very popular and even the older trucks look the business and they are utterly reliable.
Isuzu is the market leader in terms of sale volume for all types of trucks.

The container terminal Altenwerder at the Köhlbrand is one of four container terminals in Hamburg. This specific view is one of my favorites in the Hamburg harbor.

These three containers showcase the new City of Yarra litter bins in Queens Parade. There may be more designs elsewhere but the three I saw are good for #cf14!

My big container by the deck turned out pretty well. The Goldilocks creeping jenny spilling over the sides is very reliable and dramatic. The magenta impatiens were dependable and bloomed all summer, although they looked a little sun-bleached. The Swallowtail coleus was a little boring, though. It was a replacement for the disappointing Kong Rose coleus. I tried two Kongs and both died on me.
Equipment used
Manitou Telehandler
3 ton Manitou Fork lift
15 ton Fork lift
Hino 7 ton Hiab truck
Reach Stacker
Four Containers arrived at location and preparation to un-stuff began. Oversized loads were inspected for damage in transit, a pre-determined lifting plan actioned. Steel.Steel beams were stacked on top of the cargo which meant that manual labor was needed to un-stuff each container prior to using the MHE.
Once the steel had been removed manually, pallet trucks and fork lifts made easy work of un-stuffing the containers and placing the cargoes in the designated unpacking area.
Each container presented a different challenge regarding the safest way to un-stuff the cargo to prevent any damage. Eight meter steel beams had to be manually un-stacked before the telehandler could reach into the containers and pull the individual pieces out.
CEA provided all plastic sheeting and tarpaulins made at our plastic production facilities in Laem Chabang, these would protect the new ground surface from heavy equipment damage whilst the operation was underway.
The oversized cargo was lifted out of the containers through the use of a Reach Stacker.
Each of the four containers presented their own individual difficulties for manual and mechanical un-stuffing, the CEA team improvised and adapted well to overcome each hurdle much to the delight of the client.
