Transiflat Features
SCF Transiflats are designed to transport irregular freight, on road and rail.
Their simple design means two can be deployed onto a Skel and used as a flatbed trailer. This provides the ultimate freedom for your business, who can alternate between transporting traditional cargo in containers on a Skel, to more irregular freight on a Transiflat.
Built to SCF's high standard, these units are designed to perform in Australia's environment.

How is this container delivered?
Tilt Tray
This is the most common method. We tilt the truck’s tray, then slide the container off while the vehicle slowly moves forward. Just note that the container’s height will increase when it’s tilted – so if your site has overhead obstacles (like power lines) we may need to go with another method.
Side Loader
If your site has limited space around the shipping container’s final position, side loader delivery could be the best option. The container is unloaded between the side loader’s two outrigger feet – about 0.5m from the truck’s side. We use side loaders to transport 20ft and 40ft shipping containers.
Hiab Crane
We use Hiab cranes when there’s not enough space for a side loader or tilt tray – or if your site has other tricky obstacles to manoeuver around (like fences). The crane lifts and then places the shipping container. This method also makes it easy to place containers at an angle, or on raised areas.
