Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered Heavy Lift Cargo?
Heavy Lift Cargo typically refers to items that are too heavy or oversized to fit into standard shipping containers or be handled by conventional equipment. This often includes large machinery, industrial equipment, and construction materials.
How do you handle out-of-gauge (OOG) cargo?
We handle OOG cargo by carefully loading and securing it on flat racks or platforms. Our team ensures that the cargo is properly braced and lashed to prevent movement during transit, adhering to all relevant safety regulations.
What documentation is required for international shipping?
The required documentation varies depending on the origin and destination countries, as well as the type of cargo. Generally, you will need a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and potentially certificates of origin, permits, and licenses. Our customs brokerage team can assist you with navigating these requirements.
How long does it take to ship cargo from the UK to Fargo?
The transit time can vary depending on several factors, including the specific route, mode of transport, and customs clearance processes. Typically, sea freight can take several weeks, while air freight is faster but more expensive. Contact us for a more precise estimate based on your specific shipment details.
Do you offer insurance for project cargo shipments?
Yes, we offer cargo insurance options to protect your shipment against loss or damage during transit. Our team can help you select the appropriate coverage based on the value and nature of your cargo.
What is a flat rack container?
A flat rack container is a type of shipping container with no sides and often no roof. It's designed for oversized or unusually shaped cargo that won't fit in a standard container. Flat racks allow for loading from the sides or top, making them ideal for heavy machinery and large equipment.
How do you ensure the safety of Heavy Lift Cargo during transport?
We ensure the safety of Heavy Lift Cargo through meticulous planning, utilising specialised equipment, and employing experienced personnel. This includes conducting route surveys, using appropriate lifting techniques, and securing the cargo properly to prevent shifting or damage during transit.
Can you handle customs clearance for my shipment?
Yes, we offer comprehensive customs brokerage services to facilitate the smooth clearance of your shipment through customs. Our team is well-versed in international regulations and can handle all necessary documentation and procedures.
