Abstract
A container transfer system for a transport vehicle includes a lift assembly which has spaced lift lugs that can extend into spaced recesses in the floor of a mating storage container and attachment straps that respectively extend from opposite ends of a mast to connection elements on the respective sides of the container to connect the container to the lift assembly and enable the lift assembly to lift the container onto the vehicle for transport to another location and thereafter download the container off the vehicle.
