Tips for securing Cargo
When securing cargo, it should be blocked or braced to prevent movement during transit.
- Blocking refers to preventing the load from moving laterally (side-to-side).
- Bracing refers to preventing the loading from moving vertically (up-and-down).
Blocking and bracing can be done using a combination of dunnage (such as timber beams, empty pallets, plastic foam or inflatable bags) or lashing (with ropes, straps, chains or netting) to prevent the cargo from sliding, bouncing and tipping in any direction
