Ladungssicherung Sprinter & Transporter - So wird die Ladung gesichert

Safely loading your van, van, or cargo vehicle is a critical step for a safe and successful delivery. From knowing weight limits to using the right materials for strapping shipments, properly securing loads requires both industry knowledge and expertise. In this blog post, we'll share essential load securing tips every van owner or driver should know before transporting goods across busy roads and highways . These useful tips can help prevent items from shifting during transit while ensuring compliance with all regulatory requirements .

Overview of load securing in Sprinter vans

Secure load securing is crucial to preventing accidents and damage to goods. This applies not only to Sprinter vans, but also to other vans. As a professional transporter, you must ensure that your cargo is properly secured and stabilized to prevent shifting and damage during transport. There are a variety of load securing methods and products available, including tie-down straps, tension chains, anti-slip mats, and more. It's important to select the appropriate securing measures based on the type and size of your cargo. During transport, you should also regularly check that your cargo is still stable and securely fastened. Well-executed load securing is a crucial factor for the smooth running of the transport process and the satisfaction of your customers.

Benefits of properly secured cargo

Properly securing loads is of utmost importance, as it is not only a legal requirement but also contributes to the safety of other road users . If loads are transported unsecured, they can become dangerous and cause serious damage in the event of sudden braking or an accident. Properly secured loads ensure a more stable load and prevent slipping during transport. Furthermore, they reduce the risk of damage to the goods and thus save costs for repairs or warranty claims. Properly securing loads is therefore an essential factor for road safety and cost reduction.

FAQ: Load securing for Sprinter & Transporter

What do the laws prescribe for load securing in vans and sprinters?

All vehicles (up to 3.5 t and over) are subject to Section 22 of the German Road Traffic Act (StVO): The load must be secured so that it does not slip, tip, roll, fall, or cause noise, even during emergency braking or evasive maneuvers . The driver and loader are jointly responsible, and violations are punishable by fines and, if applicable, points on their license.

What tools are available for securing loads in vans?

Important tools include lashing straps and ratchets, anti-slip mats, edge protectors, locking bars, clamping bars, lashing rails, partition nets, loading beams, and dimensionally stable load securing nets. Depending on the load and vehicle type (panel van, Sprinter van, small van), special securing systems such as foldable partition nets or quick-release rods are particularly useful.

How does force-locking and form-locking load securing work in the Sprinter?

Force-locking load securing : The load is pressed against the vehicle floor using lashing straps, nets, or tensioning chains, often supported by anti-slip mats (friction). Form-locking load securing : The load is placed seamlessly against side walls, end walls, partition nets, and locking beams , preventing it from moving.

Which errors lead to problems with load securing?

Typical errors include: too few or incorrectly tensioned belts, failure to check the securing system, overloaded or unevenly distributed cargo , loose or sharp edges, and failure to check the load regularly during transport. Loads that extend beyond the vehicle's boundaries or impair the driver's visibility or function are particularly dangerous.

How do I secure long or overhanging loads in the van?

A maximum of 1.5 meters of overhang to the rear is permitted, and up to 3 meters for distances up to 100 km. Anything over 1 meter must be clearly marked (with a red flag, reflector, or light). In addition, cargo must be securely lashed and secured against falling or protruding.

What should be considered regarding axle load and weight distribution in the Sprinter?

The load must be distributed so that no axle is overloaded . Heavy loads should be placed low and as centrally as possible, while light loads should be placed at the top, distributed to maintain a low center of gravity and stability . After every trip, the secure fit should be checked and tightened if necessary.
