A frame 1 has a plurality of side rails 1, end rails 2 and cross rails 3. It is mounted on wheels 6 and landing legs 5. The frame is sized to accommodate a pair of intermodal freight containers placed side by side. Guides 4 locate and hold the containers. Additional containers may be stacked on top the first pair. In use containers Fig 2, 20, 21, 22, 23 may be placed onto frame 1. Tractor unit Fig 2, 11 and trailer Fig 2,10 may engage with frame 1. Known twistlocks may lock the container to the frame and the rows of containers to one another. The frame may be dismantled and transported on a vehicle trailer, Fig 3. The framework may also be guided by an autonomous or robotic vehicle, Figures 4A, 4B, 4C. The objective of the frame is to reduce the number of quay or dockside vehicle movements.
