Heavy Machine

At Globalwide Cargo Network, we strive to offer our clients a shipping option that is both reliable and affordable. Whether you need to export a single piece of heavy machinery like an excavator or an entire fleet like a dozer or wheel loader, Fab can help. We have the resources and global reach to transport any type of heavy machinery to any location.

Heavy equipment is an essential component of many business sectors and transporting it is somewhat more difficult than transporting ordinary machinery or machinery that is more condensed. 

The shipment of industrial machinery is an essential aspect of the transportation sector. Each shipment of heavy machinery is coupled with a detailed and specialized process to guarantee that the heavy equipment can be moved from one location to another without incident.

Container shipping is the most frequent form of transporting goods and facilitates simple loading and unloading procedures for heavy gear and equipment. The typical container size for this approach is either twenty or forty feet, which means that even though this is the way that is utilized the most frequently, you may experience difficulties if the dimensions of your heavy gear exceed those parameters.

We take exclusive care of your heavy machinery

Shipping heavy machinery is dependent on its size and form. We use all four standard techniques to move big machinery:

  • Containers

Container transportation makes loading and unloading 20- or 40-foot containers easy. Large machinery may not fit in a typical container. Heavy machinery and equipment may need to be disassembled to work in a container.

  • Lift−on/lift−off

Lift-on/Lift-off, or LoLo, is the technique of utilizing a crane to load and unload heavy equipment and machinery. In principle, LoLo is a straightforward way of heavy equipment shipping. However, the need for a crane capable of lifting and moving your load and a highly trained crew can contribute to shipping machinery expenditures that might be saved if your cargo can roll.

  • Roll−on/roll−off

RoRo is the easiest way to send if your shipment can be rolled. Wheeled heavy machinery may be transported onto containers and ship decks. 

  • Shipping rack

Flat rack containers alleviate stacking and trailer compatibility issues for moving big machines. A flat rack is essentially a shipping container minus the top and sides, providing more freedom in mounting a shipper’s heavy load onto the container’s stacking surface.
