Prefix
ZDSU
Owner or operator
Zodiac Data System

The four-letter prefix ZDSU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Zodiac Data System.

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.

ZDSU container number format

A container number starting with ZDSU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example ZDSU1234567.

Who uses ZDSU containers

ZDSU is registered to Zodiac Data System. Leased or exchanged equipment can move with a different shipping line, so the prefix alone does not identify the carrier of a shipment.
