SHIPPING CONTAINER WHEEL SETS — COMPLETE MOBILITY SOLUTIONS FOR EVERY APPLICATION
Move, position, and level your shipping containers safely and efficiently with Quickfit’s professional range of container wheel systems.
Each system is designed for a specific application — from light container repositioning to heavy-duty industrial movement — giving you the right balance of strength, control, and safety for your site.
🔹 1. Swivel Wheel Set
Flexible Movement | Simple Installation | Easy Container Repositioning
Our Swivel Wheel Set provides a fast and practical solution for moving empty or lightly loaded shipping containers around yards, depots, and work sites.
Each twistlock swivel caster connects directly into standard ISO container corner castings, allowing containers to be manoeuvred freely without forklifts or cranes.
Each swivel wheel supports 3,000 kg, providing strong and reliable mobility for container repositioning.
Because container yards and floors are rarely perfectly flat, typically only two wheels bear the majority of the load at any given time. Therefore, the practical working load is 3,000 kg per wheel and 6,000 kg total across two load-bearing wheels in a four-wheel setup.
Includes
• 4 × Twistlock Swivel Caster Wheels (3,000 kg each)
• 1 × Tow Bar
Ideal For
Container yards, storage depots, workshops, and temporary repositioning where manoeuvrability is required.
Key Benefits
✅ Direct twistlock installation into container corner castings
✅ Full 360° swivel movement for easy manoeuvring
✅ 3,000 kg load capacity per wheel
✅ Quick setup with no permanent modifications required
Compatibility: Standard 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft containers (not suitable for 8ft units).
🔹 2. Fixed Wheel Set
Stable Movement | Straight-Line Control | Reliable Container Positioning
The Fixed Wheel Set is designed for controlled container movement where straight-line guidance and stability are required.
Unlike swivel wheels, fixed wheels maintain directional movement, making them ideal for positioning containers accurately across yards or storage facilities.
Each fixed wheel supports 1,800 kg, providing dependable stability during controlled movement.
Because container yards and surfaces are rarely perfectly level, typically only two wheels carry the majority of the load at any given time. Therefore, the practical working load is 1,800 kg per wheel and 3,600 kg total across two load-bearing wheels in a four-wheel setup.
Includes
• 4 × Fixed Side-Mounted Caster Wheels (1,800 kg each)
• 1 × Tow Bar
• 4 × Ratchet Straps
Ideal For
Container yards, warehouses, and work sites where controlled directional movement is preferred.
Key Benefits
✅ Straight-line movement for improved control
✅ Durable construction for industrial environments
✅ Easy side-mounted installation
✅ Ratchet straps included for secure container attachment
Compatibility: Standard 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft containers.
🔹 3. Swivel & Fixed Wheel Set
Balanced Mobility | Controlled Direction | Ideal for Yard Relocations
This combination system provides the perfect balance between manoeuvrability and stability.
The swivel wheels allow containers to turn and reposition easily, while the fixed wheels provide controlled directional movement when towing containers across a site.
The swivel wheels support 3,000 kg each, while the fixed wheels support 1,800 kg each.
Because container yards and floors are rarely perfectly flat, typically only two wheels carry the majority of the load at any given time. Due to the mixed wheel configuration and mounting positions, this system is best suited for empty or lightly loaded containers during short-distance movement.
Includes
• 2 × Twistlock Swivel Caster Wheels (3,000 kg each)
• 2 × Fixed Side-Mounted Caster Wheels (1,800 kg each)
• 1 × Tow Bar
• 2 × Ratchet Straps
Ideal For
Short-distance container movement in yards, depots, and storage facilities.
Key Benefits
✅ Combination of swivel and fixed wheels for better control
✅ Easy container manoeuvring with directional stability
✅ Tow bar included for convenient towing
✅ Secure installation using twistlock and side mounting
Note:
Due to different mounting positions (side and underside), the container may sit slightly uneven. This does not affect performance.
Compatibility: Standard 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft containers (not suitable for 8ft units).
🔹 4. Hydraulic Self-Lifting Jack Set
Precision Lifting | Container Levelling | Controlled Hydraulic Operation
The Hydraulic Self-Lifting Jack Set is designed for lifting, positioning, and levelling shipping containers safely without heavy machinery.
Each hydraulic jack supports 3,000 kg, providing powerful yet controlled lifting for installation and maintenance work.
When used together, the system provides a combined lifting capacity of 6,000 kg, allowing containers to be safely raised for levelling or positioning.
The lifting jacks are designed specifically for controlled lifting and positioning rather than continuous container movement.
