What type of seals should you use for C-TPAT?

If 53 foot containers/trailers are being used to export cargo to the U.S. and the doors open outward instead of rolling upwards, a 48 inch cable seal must be used according to U.S. Customs guidelines.

If vans or bobtails are being used to export cargo to the U.S., for CTPAT purposes a bolt seal can be placed on the doors.
