Unitized Cargo
   
These products should be stowed tightly together in well-built, solid crates to prevent sliding. It may only be possible to stow these products one layer high, due to their weight. The load must be centered in the container, and the side walls should be reinforced with plates or bars, bracing the units against these reinforcements with diagonal props. Less heavy merchandise can be stowed in layers lengthwise in the container, using horizontal supports between the layers.

The cargo must be anchored securely to prevent pressure against the doors of the container. This can be done by inserting a wood grating between the cargo and rear corner posts.
