Shipping very heavy industrial machines demands professional rigging. Use purpose‑built skids with clear lifting points, hire experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose suitable heavy‑haul 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 must be protected from rain and condensation. Use sealed plastic covers with drying agents inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and book Enclosed trailers whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate VCI packaging for long voyages.
Exporting heavy equipment typically calls for a detailed invoice, packing list, transport document, and any control permits applicable to your destination. Customs brokers typically 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 HVAC equipment.
High‑value backup generators are best 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 rigging are covered, and store 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 are occasionally stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is properly sealed and placed on hardstanding, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like air handling units and power equipment Are better kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, check wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and plan for timely installation to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
Industrial machinery and construction equipment require specialized handling during loading and unloading at both Port Said and Vitoria due to their size and weight. Proper securing methods, such as using heavy-duty straps and braces, are essential to prevent movement during transit. Additionally, equipment may need to be disassembled for easier handling and to comply with container size limitations.
Shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment from Egypt to Brazil requires compliance with both countries' regulatory requirements. Export documentation from Egypt must include a commercial invoice, packing list, and export license, if applicable. In Brazil, importers must provide a declaration to the customs authority, ensuring that the equipment meets local safety and environmental standards, including any necessary certifications.
