Does anyone know were I can find information about securing them to a platforms whilst in transit. We have skip lorries which carry one on the lorry and then one on a trailer. Effectively towing it. My question is how should it be secured, what is the legal criteria.
Thanks in anticipation.

Can I guess?
Do your skips contain something dangerous, like say Asbestos?
If it does, as far as I know it's simply a padlock and a warning sign - as far as I know.
(and I would suggest the driver is given a bag containing a noddy suit, gloves, sticky tape, mask -- in case you have an incident / accident and training to know what to do. Also spare road warning signs). (Same as HAZMAT loads).

The only other thing I can suggest is that the skips are chained into place under tension using ratchet chains - so they don't fall off your flatbed or trailer.
Happy New Year.
