This checklist helps councils, warehouses, and logistics teams assess safe container unloading. Capture visit details, unloading methods, delivery frequency, product types, weight and size limits, and loading specifications. Verify procedures before orders, confirm competent assessor involvement, and evaluate container access methods such as docking systems, ramps, step ladders, safety cages, and mobile platforms. Review first-layer and top-layer unloading approaches using FLTs, conveyors, or manual handling, determine when deliveries can be refused, and document incident history. Identify improvements and constraints to ensure safer warehouse and dock operations.
