Shipping very heavy Industrial machinery necessitates careful planning. Use Steel‑reinforced skids with clear lifting points, hire experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose step‑deck or lowboy equipment rated for the full load. Secure and chock the machine to prevent any movement, and photograph its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive HVAC equipment needs to be shielded from moisture. Use Shrink wrap with drying agents inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and select dry containers whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate Dehumidified or ventilated containers for long voyages.
Exporting Construction machinery typically involves a customs invoice, packing list, Bill of lading, and any control permits applicable to your destination. Most freight forwarders recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for backup 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 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 rigging are covered, and retain inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built factory equipment where lead times and replacement costs are high.
Crated Construction machines may be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is designed for it and placed on Elevated dunnage, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like air handling units and backup generators should ideally be 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 & Construction Equipment requires specialized handling due to its size and weight. It is crucial to ensure that the machinery is securely packed and loaded onto the vessel to prevent damage during transit. Additionally, use of flat racks or open-top containers may be necessary for oversized items.
