Project Cargo

Project cargo transportation moves oversized, overweight, or high-value equipment, such as industrial machinery or construction components, that cannot travel through standard shipping channels. Safe handling of this type of cargo follows recognized international guidance, including the IMO Code of Safe Practice for Cargo Stowage and Securing (CSS Code), which sets out how oversized and heavy cargo should be stowed and secured during transport.

Why Project Cargo Needs Specialized Handling

Standard container shipping is not built for equipment that exceeds normal size or weight limits. Project cargo transportation requires route surveys, permits for oversized loads, and coordination between multiple transport modes, often combining multimodal transport for the main leg with specialized road transport for delivery to the final site.

How We Plan Project Cargo Transportation

Project cargo transportation needs a plan built around the cargo. So we treat cargo with special requirements under a dedicated set of checks. We run them before we confirm a shipment.

Read the six checks as text

• Cargo classification: we identify what the cargo is and what it needs.
• Acceptance requirements: we confirm that the cargo can be accepted for carriage.
• Specialized documents: we prepare the documents this type of cargo needs.
• Carrier and route approval: we obtain approval for the carrier and the route.
• Handling restrictions: we note the limits that apply to loading and handling the cargo.
• Exception escalation: if anything deviates, we record it, assign an owner and escalate it.

Information We Need for Project Cargo Transportation

To plan project cargo transportation, please send the details up front.

• Goods: name, description, HS code, quantity, weight, dimensions and cargo value.
• Carriage: Incoterms, route, port of loading and destination, and the pick-up and delivery addresses.
• Timing: cargo ready date, expected departure and arrival, and any deadline.
• Customs and extras: export or import procedures, insurance and any specialist inspection.

Then we can confirm what is feasible. Read more about our multimodal transport and customs brokerage service and our cross-border transport service.
