Transporting oversized and overweight project cargo can be complicated and involve a lot of logistics planning. There are dozens of factors that need to be taken into account such as:

  • carrying capacity of the vehicles that are employed,
  • ground pressure by the loaded vehicle,
  • maximum allowed sizes of the vehicle with cargo on it,
  • maximum allowed deck pressure of the ship,
  • cranes and loading machinery that is available at transit points and many others

A real building boom has occurred over the last few years in Russia and the CIS countries. Modern building techniques are almost impossible without using the most up to date technologies and that is why the flow of building equipment is increasing.

What is common with cargo of this type is that most of it is not shipped by volume measurement but by weight, this requires the use of a special rolling stock at origin and destination and because of this these projects tend to be expensive. We have establish detailed processes with our employees on how to handle cargo of this nature, this allows us to ensure their delivery on time and without damages, thus satisfy our customers and avoid conflicts with insurance companies.

Providing this kind of services depends on keeping shipping charges low and respecting terms of delivery. We handle cargo of this nature, hazardous and non-hazardous, from Canada, Korea, Germany, Austria, USA, India and other countries.
