20ft Container Loading Trailer for Scrap Export
Three custom MVL20 trailers delivered for loading 20ft containers with scrap for export. Built for tough daily use with simple operation, supported by on-site training. Read the full project story below.
Project facts
Three trailers for recurring scrap export
VAKO delivered three custom MVL20 trailers to a scrap-metal trader in Saudi Arabia for loading 20ft export containers in daily yard operations.

The challenge: a repeatable 20ft export-loading process
The customer needed to load 20ft containers with scrap for export under demanding daily yard conditions. The equipment had to be robust, straightforward to operate and suitable for a routine that operators could repeat across the site. A delivery of three trailers provided a consistent loading concept at multiple points.
Material shape, density and container limits all influence the right approach. See VAKO’s waste and recycling applications for the wider scrap-loading context.
The solution
Three custom vertical-loading trailers
VAKO engineered and built three MVL20 trailers for the customer’s 20ft containers and scrap flow. Each trailer positions a container upright so loose material can be loaded from above. The same equipment concept across all three units helps establish a consistent operating routine.

Delivered with operator instruction
The project included on-site training and practical instruction for positioning, loading and returning containers to their transport position. With three trailers in service, the customer has a repeatable 20ft scrap-loading setup for export operations.
VAKO also developed a 40ft vertical loader for aluminium scrap in Denmark. The two projects show how container size, material and yard flow shape each solution. To estimate what a loading change could mean at your site, use the container loading ROI calculator.
