DATACON Services

Container and Chassis Inspections
Datacon is the oldest container and chassis surveying company in the Midwest. We specialize in IICL, container and chassis On Hire and Off Hire surveys. These cost effective surveys will result in a significant savings for your company. Photographs are supplied upon request for minimal cost. Third Party rebill damage is reported for recovery. Improper repairs are also identified and reported so repair vendors can be held accountable for improper repairs.

On hire surveys assure only quality leased equipment is coming into your inventory. We document all existing repairs, improper repairs as well as repairs needed before the container or chassis is taken On Hire. Our On Hire surveys can assist you in the Off Hire or In Service process as well. Datacon also does In Service inspections on containers and chassis that remain on lease to your company. CSC Safety Inspections can be done for containers purchased for cargo worthy or seaworthy useage. Seaworthy certicates can be issued for each container as well as a current CSC sticker applied to the container’s Data Plate. Food grade inspections and ammo grade inspections can also be carried out to insure quality equipment meeting the specific criteria is followed.

Chassis Roadability Inspections
Datacon technicians can pre-inspect chassis that are going to be released to truckers prior to the driver’s arrival at the depot or railroad. Roadability inspections will be carried out by Datacon’s skilled technicians before the driver arrives. Chassis that fail due to major issues will be swap with another chassis. Minor damages will be repaired before the driver arrives to avoid long lines to carry out “gate repairs”.


Intermodal Cargo Loss and Damage Surveys
Investigating cargo loss and damage claims by providing accurate and detailed reports, by an unbiased third party is one of the valuable services Datacon can provide your company as we have for others over the past 30 years. Our surveyors will provide Claims Managers and Claims Adjusters with a clear description of the nature, cause and extent of each loss. In addition, we will recommend appropriate methods of prevention if requested. No claim for loss and damage is too small for us to investigate. We even offer flat rates for small claims to keep the cost of surveying small claims to a minimum. The primary rule for minimizing losses and associated costs is to react promptly and efficiently to all cargo survey requests. Datacon will respond to your survey requests promptly.
