Abstract: A simple two component manually operated container hook for efficiently engaging a container's lift fitting and safely lifting the container. The configuration of the hook member allows it to be quickly maneuvered into an engaging position within the lift fitting and the lowering of a lock plug into the remaining void within the lift fitting positively locks the hook member in place.
