Shipping Heavy Equipment from Teoloyucan to Omaha via Ocean Freight

Shipping very heavy Industrial machinery demands Engineered crating. Use heavy timber skids with clear lifting points, Engage 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 record its condition before pickup.

Yes, moisture‑sensitive HVAC equipment must be Sealed against humidity. Use moisture‑barrier film with Desiccant packs inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and select dry containers whenever possible. For ocean freight, ask about enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.

Exporting Construction machinery typically calls for a Commercial invoice, packing list, waybill, and any Export licenses 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, you should check if you need certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for industrial machines.

High‑value Generators Should be protected by Separate cargo insurance, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for replacement cost, confirm that Loading and unloading 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 are occasionally stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is Weather‑resistant and placed on concrete pads, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like HVAC equipment and backup generators should ideally be kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, verify wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and limit duration to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.

When shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment, it is essential to ensure that items are securely packed and properly loaded to prevent damage during transit. Heavy machinery may require special rigging and securing methods to withstand ocean conditions. Additionally, equipment must be compliant with weight restrictions for loading at the port of Teoloyucan and unloading at the port of Omaha.

Required documentation for customs clearance typically includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any specific certificates relevant to industrial machinery and construction equipment. Importers must also ensure compliance with U.S. regulations, which may include proof of safety standards and emissions compliance for machinery entering the United States.

The “One Test Run Challenge” is an invitation to give DNA Supply Chain Solutions one test shipment so we can prove what visibility, reliability, and real partnership feel like with just a single shipment.

The name comes from a conversation between our founder and his daughter, Ameerah, who suggested merging their names—David ‘N’ Ameerah—to create DNA, reflecting strong bonds, shared values, and trust.
