Determine if your vehicles fit within a standard container. If not, Out-of-Gauge (OOG) or Breakbulk shipping will be necessary. OOG cargo exceeds standard container dimensions, while Breakbulk refers to cargo transported individually, not in containers. This will involve specialized heavy-lift equipment, securement methods, and potentially chartering a vessel with sufficient deck space. Shipping International will assess your specific needs and advise on the most suitable and cost-effective shipping method.
Choosing the optimal ports of origin and destination is crucial for efficiency and cost. Factors considered include proximity to your locations, handling capacity for OOG/Breakbulk cargo, heavy-lift infrastructure, and customs efficiency. Shipping International's expertise ensures the selection of the most suitable ports for your specific requirements.
Comprehensive and accurate documentation is vital for a smooth shipping process. This includes detailed cargo specifications, such as comprehensive drawings and weight certificates conforming to ISO standards. Necessary export licenses or permits must be secured from the relevant authorities. Adequate cargo insurance, such as Institute Cargo Clauses A, is essential to protect your investment. Shipping International can assist with all aspects of documentation, ensuring compliance with all regulations.
The safe transit of your valuable underground vehicles requires careful planning and execution. Shipping International will provide recommendations for custom crating or specialized securing methods based on your specific needs and the chosen shipping method. This may involve shock absorption, vibration dampening, and weatherproofing to ensure your vehicles arrive at their destination in perfect condition.
Shipping International manages the entire transportation process, from origin to destination. This includes specialized road haulage using low-bed trailers for heavy and oversized loads, sea freight via vessels suitable for heavy-lift and out-of-gauge cargo (such as heavy-lift vessels or RoRo ships), and expert destination handling with specialized heavy-lift equipment for unloading.
Navigating international customs regulations can be complex. Shipping International simplifies this process by handling both export and import customs clearance. Shipping International's expertise ensures compliance with all regulations, minimizing delays and ensuring a smooth transition through customs.
