Military Tested and Approved

Shake It. Drop It. Spray It. Military testing subjected the SmartVault® to rough handling in extremes of heat and cold. With a test load of 2,066 pounds, typical weight for real-world moves, the SmartVault passed a series of 10 gritty performance tests. The same SmartVault was used throughout, leaving no doubt of the container's fitness to serve.

Our SmartVault is the only tested moving container to exceed the rigorous physical, environmental, and security standards set forth by the U.S. Military SDDC #302 for vaulted shipments.
