Looking to move project cargo without delays, damage, or permit surprises?

Project cargo isn’t “just freight”—it’s engineering, timing, and risk management across every handoff. We plan oversized and heavy-lift moves end to end, coordinating route constraints, handling requirements, and documentation so your equipment arrives site-ready and on schedule.


  1. Engineered planning for OOG, heavy-lift, and breakbulk moves
  2. Route surveys, access checks, and permit coordination (as required)
  3. Mode selection across road, rail, sea, and multimodal site-to-site execution
  4. Loading/securement plans with controlled handoffs and checklists
  5. Milestone updates, exception management, and POD closeout

Service overview

Project cargo logistics is built for shipments that are oversized, overweight, high-value, time-critical, or operationally complex—where standard container workflows don’t apply. The priority is predictable execution: controlled handling, clear responsibilities, and proactive coordination from pickup through final delivery.

What we handle

  1. Oversized / Out-of-Gauge (OOG) cargo requiring special equipment and loading plans
  2. Heavy-lift shipments that need engineered handling and strict sequencing
  3. Breakbulk cargo moved as individual pieces rather than in containers
  4. Flat-rack and open-top solutions when containerized options make sense
  5. Ro-Ro planning where feasible for rolling or drivable units (lane-dependent)
  6. Site-to-site deliveries for industrial, construction, and capital equipment programs
  7. Multi-leg moves with controlled transfers at terminals, yards, or staging points

How it works

  1. Define the cargo: item list, dimensions, weight, handling limits, and readiness date.
  2. Engineer the move: route feasibility, access constraints, lifting/securement approach, and risk controls.
  3. Confirm scope: pickup, staging, main transport leg(s), customs steps, and last-mile delivery.
  4. Coordinate permits & timing: escorts, travel windows, terminal cut-offs, and site appointment plans (as required).
  5. Execute with visibility: milestones, photo/condition checks where appropriate, and exception management through delivery and POD.

Service scope & options

Choose the execution model that matches your project:

  1. Door-to-door / site-to-site planning with one point of contact
  2. Port-to-site / site-to-port where your team manages one leg internally
  3. Staging and sequencing support for multi-piece deliveries and timed arrivals (as agreed)

Incoterms supported (as applicable): EXW, FCA, FOB, CFR, CIF, CPT, CIP, DAP, DDP.

Routes & coverage

Project cargo moves are built around real constraints—road restrictions, terminal capabilities, seasonal limitations, and site access. We align routing and modes to your timeline, equipment availability, and handling requirements, then protect the plan with milestone controls and escalation paths.

Documentation & compliance

Complex cargo depends on clean, accurate documentation and coordinated approvals. Support can include (destination-dependent):

  1. Commercial documents (invoice, packing list) and shipping instructions
  2. Cargo descriptions aligned to handling requirements and restrictions
  3. Customs steps and compliance workflows as scoped
  4. Hazardous cargo handled only where eligible and properly documented
  5. Controlled document sharing so stakeholders stay aligned through every handoff

Transit time & scheduling

Lead time is influenced by permits, escorts, equipment availability, terminal windows, and site receiving rules—not just distance. We build schedules that account for staging, travel restrictions, and lifting windows, with proactive updates if plans change.

What affects project cargo logistics cost / rates?

  1. Cargo profile: dimensions, weight, lifting needs, and handling complexity
  2. Equipment selection: flatbed/step-deck/lowboy options and availability
  3. Route constraints: access limits, bridges, curfews, and travel windows
  4. Permits and escorts/pilot requirements (where required)
  5. Terminal handling and special lifts (as applicable)
  6. Mode mix: road vs rail vs ocean/breakbulk vs multimodal transfers
  7. Packaging/crating, blocking/bracing, and securement materials
  8. Storage/staging time, waiting risk, and appointment constraints
  9. Demurrage/detention exposure and exception handling requirements
  10. Insurance needs and documentation scope

What We Provide

  1. OOG / heavy‑lift execution planning
  2. Flat‑rack / open‑top / breakbulk solutions (as needed)
  3. Heavy‑haul trucking (step‑deck / lowboy where required)
  4. Route surveys + permits/escorts coordination (as required)
  5. Site delivery scheduling + controlled handoffs (milestones/POD)

FAQs

What qualifies as project cargo?

Cargo that is oversized, overweight, high-value, time-sensitive, or complex enough to require engineered planning and controlled handling.

What’s the difference between OOG and breakbulk?

OOG refers to cargo that exceeds standard container dimensions; breakbulk moves cargo as individual pieces rather than in containers.

Can you handle heavy-lift and oversized equipment?

Yes—moves are planned around equipment needs, route constraints, and handling requirements.

Do you arrange permits and escorts?

Permit and escort coordination can be included where required, based on lane and cargo.

Do you support flat-rack or open-top options?

Yes—when containerized solutions make sense for the cargo profile.

How do you manage site access and delivery appointments?

We confirm constraints (gates, turning radius, time windows) and align scheduling to reduce waiting and failed deliveries.

What documents do you need to plan the move?

Dimensions/weights per piece, cargo list, photos/drawings, handling notes, and target dates—plus destination-dependent customs documents as scoped.

How do you reduce risk of damage or delays?

Controlled handoffs, checklists, securement planning, milestone updates, and early exception escalation.

Can you provide insurance options?

Insurance options can be arranged as part of the agreed scope.

What’s the typical lead time?

It depends on permits, equipment availability, terminal windows, and site constraints—sharing details early helps lock a realistic schedule.
