Moving containers safely beneath overhead power lines and in utility zones
Working near high voltage power lines, substations, or critical utility infrastructure demands the highest safety standards, especially when moving or installing heavy structures like shipping containers, modular buildings, or plant rooms. Traditional crane or Hiab-based delivery simply isn’t safe or practical when overhead clearance is limited or live equipment is in close proximity.
At Container Mover, we offer a specialist ground-level moving service that eliminates the need to lift containers into the air, making us the ideal choice for utility sites, high voltage zones, and locations with overhead power lines.

A safer way to move containers in high risk utility environments
Our innovative container moving system keeps units low to the ground at all times, allowing us to:
Without the risks of lifting equipment. Ideal for high-voltage and utility sites.
Precise, ground-level movement—safe for sensitive utility environments.
Our low-risk, no-lift container moving system is designed for regulated utility sites.
Ideal for complex utility environments with limited space and strict safety protocols.
Whether you're working on a power network compound, a telecoms site, a water treatment facility, or a high voltage switching station, we provide a reliable, non-intrusive solution that removes the risks of aerial lifts.
Trusted by utility and infrastructure partners
We understand the operational and safety protocols required in high-risk environments. That’s why we offer:
- Full RAMS documentation for all commercial and regulated projects
- On-site surveys to assess access, overhead hazards and ground conditions
- Operatives trained in safety-critical environments and utility site etiquette
- Close coordination with site managers, DNOs, and contractor teams
- Portacabins or static caravans used as mobile accommodation or washrooms
Common applications:
- Installing or repositioning plant rooms or modular control units
- Moving containers in live substation environments
- Relocating units on utility compounds with overhead line constraints
- Providing access to remote or fenced utility sites
- Working in restricted-height areas with sensitive equipment nearby
The low risk, no-lift choice for sites with overhead power lines
If your site involves overhead electrical infrastructure, restricted access, or high voltage risks, we provide a safe, efficient and professional solution for moving and positioning containers.
Contact Container Mover today to discuss how we can help you meet compliance, reduce downtime, and complete installation without the risks associated with cranes or heavy-lift machinery.
