Exporting heavy equipment typically involves 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 power 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 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 may 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 safest under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, Inspect wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and limit duration to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
