We arrange full and part charters for cargo that exceeds commercial airline or container carrier limits, with our in-house vessel and aircraftt chartering desks to ensure bespoke solutions for oversized cargo.
Multimodal Transport Solutions
From port to plant, we combine road, sea, rail and air transport modes to optimize cost, transit time, and handling based on cargo specifications.
Route Surveys & Feasibility Studies
Our in-house engineers inspect every meter of road and infrastructure, mapping safe, compliant transport paths and identifying required permits, special handling requirements or escorts.
Packing & Crating of Oversized Cargo
We design and build custom timber crating, steel bracing, shrink-wrapping, and protective enclosures for sensitive or over-dimensional loads to ensure cargo does not move or shift during transit.

Our field teams manage unloading, craning, final positioning, and mechanical support to prepare the cargo for operational readiness.
Customs Clearance & Documentation
We handle pre-arrival filing, HS code mapping, permits, declarations, and compliance coordination across all international borders.

Risk assessments are carried out prior to all major shipments, and we offer all-risk cargo insurance as well as maintain contingency plans to protect delivery timelines and assets.
On-Site Logistics Management
Our experienced load supervisors are on the ground, at the port, on the truck route, and at the delivery site, ensuring precise execution.

Find quick answers to common questions about our service.
Project cargo includes large, heavy, high-value, or mission-critical equipment that requires special handling, routing, or permitting. Think wind turbines, pressure vessels, modular buildings or drill pipe.
Project cargo logistics require in-depth planning, engineering, route surveys, regulatory compliance, and specialized equipment. Consequential loss or liquidated damages means there is more urgency and less room for error to ensure our clients projects succeed.
Yes. We charter MPP vessels with most major carriers and aircraft for OOG (out-of-gauge) or urgent cargo that won’t fit standard freight schedules or equipment.
The earlier, the better. For complex cargo, we recommend starting at least 4weeks before your desired shipment window to ensure feasibility, routing, and compliance.
Absolutely. With over 20 international offices and a global network of agents developed over the last 40 years we have been in business, we can and regularly do deliver cargo to all countries around the world.
