I used to work in a warehouse in Brandsmart where we had forklifts, natural gas containers, and metal shelving (the entire warehouse had huge metal racks) You have to be comfortable handling and being around metal. You are bound to ding yourself here and there. Just be careful, and have common sense. You Have To Have Your Wits About You working with metal and heavy equipment. Not Just For You, but Everyone Else Around You. You Have to Have Situational Awareness. Always Look Around You, even If you aren't on a forklift, High-Low, or other equpment. You have to work as though someone is always around you. Even if you are by yourself.
Don’t be intimidated. I’ve lashed barges and ships by myself. It’s a lot of moving heavy steel just watch out and lash and you’ll go home safely. It’s a bad ass job.
What a video it was. Literally cleared all my doubts regarding container lashing. Gracias!!!!!!!!!!!

Not only that but this is the most informative video I’ve seen on UA-cam on longshoring safety. Pretty cool PAY ATTENTION TO THIS VIDEO..
Just be aware of what you're doing and whats going on around you, you'll be alright. And damn straight! The pay is excellent! Now more than ever
Wow I appreciate this. I'm starting in Long Beach, CA and needed to hear this from actual people who work there.
@@soopastar2121 How did you get in? Do you have any connects? I work in and out of ports as a Truck Driver.
@@Alpha-Scythe23 through the post cards from a family member that works down there.
Don't you have to check to see if the stackers are cracked? Do they have a shop where they are replaced when needed?
How much equipment is all electric?
I REALLY Would LOVE To See Those Gantries Up Close!
Awesome video
Thanks for the video! Good job!
Is container lashing suitable for teenagers?
The bcmea no longer uses 6 person gangs unlike what the video says. 2, 4, or 6...lashing. non-stop
Video's broken, I'm sad.
Salutes!!!
