The invention relates to the field of piggyback transportation, in particular, to methods for loading an automobile semi-trailer onto a flatcar. A basket for the semi-trailer is placed on the ground. The semi-trailer by means of a tractor unit is placed in the removable basket and mounted on supporting legs. The wheels of the semi-trailer are located between the transverse beams of the basket, the legs of the semi-trailer are supported by an additional beam. By using a lifting means the basket with the semi-trailer is placed on the flatcar. The interaction of the flatcar and the basket occurs through energy-absorbing buffers. An increase in the loading capacity of the semi-trailers on the flatcar is achieved.
