Autonomous and automatic procedure to cover and uncover a container transported by a motor vehicle and associated mechanism by means of a tarpaulin. The method comprises automatically raising a portal assembly (8), comprising the canvas (7) wound around an extensible tree (27), and fixed at one end to the chassis (2), to exceed the height of the container (4) ; automatically separating rails (5) arranged parallel in the longitudinal direction substantially in the same plane until exceeding the width of the container (4); automatically moving the portal assembly (8) with respect to the rails (5), longitudinally towards the rear of the container (4), above said container, while said canvas (7) is unrolled, covering said canvas (7) the upper part of the container (4); closing the upper rear part of the container (4) by means of the automatic tilting of the portal assembly (8) with respect to the rails (5); and deploying canvas sides (15) (7) intended to laterally close the container (4) and tie said canvas sides (15) (7) to said container (4).
