Prefix
ULCU
Owner or operator
Unico Logistics Co Ltd

The four-letter prefix ULCU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Unico Logistics Co Ltd.

A complete container number combines the owner prefix, six-digit serial number, and check digit. The prefix identifies registered equipment ownership and does not always identify the carrier currently transporting the container.

Use the CargoEnter container validator to check the number structure before starting shipment tracking.

ULCU container number format

A container number starting with ULCU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example ULCU1234567.

Who uses ULCU containers

ULCU is registered to Unico Logistics Co Ltd. Leased or exchanged equipment can move with a different shipping line, so the prefix alone does not identify the carrier of a shipment.
