Determine the precise dimensions (length, width, height) and weight of the hydraulic press. Obtain detailed specifications, including the centre of gravity. Photograph all sides and any unique features. Accurate measurements are crucial for efficient shipping and cost estimation.
Shipping International can advise on the most suitable shipping method (flat rack, Breakbulk, etc.) based on weight, dimensions, and destination port capabilities.
Obtain all export licenses, customs documentation, and any other permits required for shipping the press to the designated country. Examples include export licenses, CITES (if applicable), and waste shipment permits.
The press may require specialized preparation, such as crating, blocking, and bracing to prevent damage during transit. Consider the need for lifting points. Suitable crating materials include plywood and steel. Ensure the load-bearing capacity of the crate is sufficient for the press's weight. Proper packaging is vital for safe and damage-free transport.
Arrange for the transportation of the press from its current location to the designated port using suitable heavy-lift transport, such as a lowboy trailer or specialized crane. This requires careful planning to ensure safe and efficient movement of the heavy machinery.
The loading of the press onto the chosen vessel (flat rack, Breakbulk vessel) will involve specialized heavy-lift equipment and experienced personnel to guarantee safe handling.
Ocean freight booking and documentation will manage all aspects of the sea voyage, including insurance, ensuring a secure and reliable transit across the ocean.
The unloading of the press at the destination port and its onward transportation to the recycling facility may involve customs clearance and other local regulations.
Ensure the shipment complies with all relevant environmental regulations for the export and import of scrap metal.
Secure comprehensive cargo insurance to cover potential damage or loss during transit.
Factors influencing cost include weight, dimensions, distance, insurance, and permits.
