Shipping very heavy industrial machines Requires professional rigging. Use purpose‑built skids with clear lifting points, Engage experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers rated for the full load. Block and brace the machine to prevent any movement, and photograph its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive air handling units Should be protected from rain and condensation. Use sealed plastic covers with Desiccant packs inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose Enclosed trailers whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate Dehumidified or ventilated containers for long voyages.
Exporting heavy equipment typically Requires a detailed invoice, packing list, transport document, and any Export licenses applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for Generators. For some destinations, authorities may require certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for Construction machines.
High‑value backup generators Should be protected by a dedicated policy, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for total project 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 Industrial machinery where lead times and replacement costs are high.
Crated industrial machinery Can sometimes be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is properly sealed and placed on hardstanding, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like HVAC equipment and Generators Are better kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, check wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and Avoid long‑term exposure to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
Industrial machinery and construction equipment must be securely packed and properly loaded to prevent damage during the 13,356 km ocean journey. It is essential to use appropriate lifting equipment and securing methods to ensure stability and safety throughout transit.
Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary export permits. Additionally, import permits or certifications may be required by Taiwanese authorities for specific industrial machinery and construction equipment.
