Height adjusted seismic base isolation system

A seismic isolation system comprising:

• at least one adjustable foot attached to a container or support frame of the container, wherein the at least one adjustable foot has a height at least sufficient to support the container or support frame of the container such that the container or support frame of the container do not touch a surface on which the container or support frame of the container rests;
• a sliding pad affixed to a portion of the at least one adjustable foot facing the surface;
• at least one anchor plate affixed to the surface, the anchor plate comprising an anchor;
• and
• at least one elastomeric band releasably attached to the at least one adjustable foot and the at least one anchor plate,
• wherein the sliding pad is configured to provide a coefficient of static and kinetic friction between the sliding pad and the surface that prevents relative movement of the sliding pad and the surface in normal operation and allows the sliding pad to move relative to the surface during a seismic event.
