Lashing Choking

Lashing is the necessary action of fastening and stabilizing all types of packages, boxes, pallets, machines and loads to immobilize them firmly by means of the necessary and suitable materials, elements or products.

Lashing is the securing of cargo for transportation, with the goal of minimizing shifting when in transit. Items used for lashing cargo down include ropes, cables, wires, strapping, and nets. These items are anchored down to the container, and tensioned against the cargo so it minimizes unnecessary movement.
