What will I learn?

The Cargo Lashing Course provides practical, step-by-step training to secure loads safely and legally on South African roads. Learn friction basics, force behaviour, load distribution, and flatbed layout for a 13.5 m truck. Master equipment selection, lashing patterns for pallets, coils, and crates, plus checklists, inspections, documentation, and emergency actions to reduce damage, fines, and delays in daily operations.
