Consensus on TruckNet was that the load wasn't secure as even if you tied each vehicle to the one below, they're each not secured to the lowest one.

Think you're supposed to secure the load to the truck, not to other bits of load.

Only way to secure that in the eyes of the law is one huge strap over the top, With the lowest one chained to stop back and forth movement.

I had a container on mine the other week with 2, 7 1/2 tonne Iveco cargo's inside. One was on the back of the other with the cab unbolted and reversed in. Just about fit in a 40' hi cube container.

Height wise they fit with space to spare, The width was the problem. Had to have the mirrors folded in and the windscreen removed so they could get out

Also had x2 transit crewcab hi tops in a high cube, They just about fit in height wise.

I would have thought it would have been the height, what are they 12ft (the container)?

Standards are 7'10" high. Hi cubes are 8'10" high internally off the top of my head. Know the hi cubes are 14'6" when they are on the skellys connected to the unit.
