    Nope.

    I haven't had a double sided doors container yet. I did a open top for the first time this week. It had a piece of machinery that they lifted out with a crane. Got to see something different for once instead of the same ol same ol...

    Was it super heavy always wondered what's in them thought it might have been some type of metal. Don't see too many in rails and who put that tarp back on it when they were finished it almost looks laced on top

    I think the piece weighed about 20k. The receiver used a Scissor lift and went around the top unlaced the tarp and then after they unloaded it they put the tarp back over it and laced it properly. Those tarps are pretty sturdy the guy at Conglobal was on top walking on it taking pictures/inspecting it when I dropped the box.

    I've pulled those when I worked a Cat account. Those were always machine or some sort of large earthmover piece
