Cargo Services

When it comes to handling bulk cargo, heavy lifting, container unloading/loading and storage, here at JB Rawcliffe & Sons Ltd we are widely recognised as specialists at providing innovative loading and unloading solutions for our customers, no matter the size or shape of the consignment.

At our 12-acre facility in Skelmersdale, Lancashire, we have a complete range of handling equipment including a crawler crane capable of loading and unloading cargo up to 120,000kg in weight. We have several internal gantry cranes with capacity up to 20,000kg, designed to handle sensitive equipment in inclement weather, and several forklift trucks from 3500kg to 40,000 capacity.

We use only the latest certified and approved securing systems, offering cost-effective lashing of loads for safe and damage-free container transport and bulk cargo handling to shipping standards. Our team can travel to manufacturers’ premises nationwide for container loading and container stuffing.

Using our own transhipping fleet, we can collect import containers from the quay and unload them at our facility for you to collect, or arrange for them to be distributed to you. We can also provide short or long term internal and external storage.

On top of container loading, de-vanning, containerisation, consolidation, and distribution we are also able to provide the recovery, transport, and de-vanning of damaged containers and/or goods contained within the container which have been damaged during transport. With facilities for the operations to be witnessed by appointed people, the careful removal of damaged goods can be witnessed by insurance and customer representatives.
