Can the Containerlifter double stack containers?
Yes some models can. But if other than empty containers are to be lifted two high, some type of opposite side stabilisers should be fitted for safety. To place a container one on top of another, necessitates lifting the second container mainly over the Containerlifter chassis. If opposite side stabilisers are fitted the pivot point for a backward rollover is then moved at least to the outside edge of the Containerlifter. If opposite side stabilisers are NOT fitted the pivot point is the only the chassis centre line, which an inattentive or uninformed operator could easily cross, resulting in a dangerous dynamic rearward rollover. Be extremely careful therefore about any claims of stacking heavy containers two high with any Containerlifter without opposite side stabilsers fitted!
