Shipping very heavy industrial machines demands careful planning. Use Steel‑reinforced skids with clear lifting points, Engage experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers rated for the full load. Stabilize and strap the machine to prevent any movement, and photograph its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive air handling units must be shielded from moisture. Use Shrink wrap with Desiccant packs inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose covered transport whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.
Exporting heavy equipment typically calls for a customs invoice, packing list, Bill of lading, and any Export licenses applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for power equipment. For some destinations, authorities may require certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for industrial machines.
High‑value backup generators are best protected by stand‑alone coverage, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for Full value, confirm that Loading and unloading are covered, and Keep inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built construction machinery where lead times and replacement costs are high.
Crated industrial machinery are occasionally stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is designed for it and placed on Elevated dunnage, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like HVAC equipment and Generators are safest under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, check wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and limit duration to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
Industrial machinery and construction equipment require careful handling due to their weight and size. It is important to secure the machinery properly for ocean transport to prevent damage during transit. Additionally, the use of specialized containers or flat racks may be necessary, depending on the dimensions of the equipment.
Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary certificates of origin or compliance specific to industrial machinery and construction equipment. Import permits may also be required by Colombian customs authorities.
