Container Survey

Inspection of containers, seals, cargo securing, and any potential damage — neutral, traceable, and documented according to international standards.

Independent Inspection of Containers and Cargo

A container survey provides a neutral inspection of the container, seals, cargo securing, and any visible damage. The results form the basis for shipowners, freight forwarders, insurers, and legal proceedings. I conduct container surveys independently, with technical precision, and with complete documentation.

What Does a Container Survey Include?

1. Inspection of the External Condition

Checking for visible damage, deformation, corrosion, watertightness, and structural integrity.

2. Verification of Seals

Checking seal numbers, integrity, and consistency with the accompanying documents.

3. Inspection of the Interior

Checking for cleanliness, absence of odours, dryness, and suitability for the intended cargo.

4. Inspection of Cargo Securing

Assessment of stowage, securing materials, and proper application.

5. Documentation & Report

Preparation of a complete survey report including photos, damage descriptions, seal data, and recommendations.
