Abstract
A system for lifting, handling, and transporting containers includes a trailer that is either connectable to a truck or permanently affixed to a truck. The trailer has front and rear ends and is configured to receive and hold a container.

The dolly may travel between the front and rear ends of the trailer and may be rotatable to face left and right sides of the trailer.
