The challenge: Why container stripping matters

Unloading vehicles isn’t risk-free

Getting cars, SUVs, motorcycles, or EVs out of containers looks simple — but one mistake can mean damage, delays, and extra costs. Common challenges include:

  • Vehicles shifting during sea transit
  • Limited space inside containers for safe maneuvering
  • EV-specific handling requirements
  • Lack of proper ramps or strapping equipment
  • Missed damage reports on arrival

Without the right partner, container stripping can quickly turn into an expensive problem.

How it works: Container stripping step by step

One crucial step in the entire logistics chain

Container stripping may just be one part of finished vehicle logistics, but it’s the most critical. If unloading goes wrong, every following step (inspection, storage, PDI, delivery) is compromised. That’s why Marlog handles it with maximum care and precision.

  1. Preparation
    Containers are received and assigned to a secure stripping zone. Our team checks IDs, seals, and any special handling notes (e.g. EVs).

  2. Safety setup
    Protective equipment, ramps, and strapping are prepared. For EVs, we apply battery safety checks and set up a dedicated zone.

  3. Container opening & first inspection
    Doors are opened carefully. We check for cargo shifts, leaks, or visible damage before vehicles are moved.

  4. Controlled unloading
    Vehicles are driven out using soft strapping, ramps, and spotters — minimising risk in the tight container space.

  5. Damage & quality reporting
    Every vehicle is inspected and photographed. Reports are logged immediately, so nothing is missed.

  6. Optional add-ons
    Vehicles can be cleaned, polished, or given a quick dust-off before moving on. Minor issues can be fixed on site.

  7. Next step in the chain
    Once stripping is complete, vehicles are ready for storage, PDI, or onward distribution by road, rail, or inland barge.
