Project and Heavy Cargo Transport

Project and Heavy Cargo Transport

Project and heavy cargo transport is the process of moving cargo that exceeds the size or weight limits of standard vehicles and trailers. For cargo of this kind, every shipment is treated as an independent project requiring specialized planning. At Sami Logistics, we provide international transport services for industrial machinery, construction equipment, power plant components, steel structures and similar out-of-gauge cargo. The project logistics process begins with determining the cargo's detailed dimensions and weight. The bridges, tunnels, bends and road narrowings along the transport route are then analyzed. Where necessary, a route survey is carried out to identify physical obstacles. The need for special permits and escort vehicles is assessed on a country-by-country basis. Lowbed trailers, modular trailers, multi-axle platforms and specialized transport equipment are used to move the cargo safely. A separate work plan is drawn up for every project, together with a comprehensive assessment aimed at identifying risks in advance. Cranes, forklifts and special lifting equipment are coordinated for loading and unloading.

Scope of Service

  • Out-of-gauge and heavy cargo transport
  • Route analysis and feasibility studies
  • Coordination of special permits and escort vehicles
  • Use of lowbed and modular trailers
  • Organization of cranes and lifting equipment
  • Industrial machinery and equipment haulage
  • International special cargo transport projects
  • Risk assessment and insurance advisory

Who Is This For?

Project transport is essential for energy sector companies, construction firms, heavy industry manufacturers, mining operations and infrastructure project contractors. We provide tailored solutions for any organization needing to ship machinery, equipment or structural components that cannot be transported using standard vehicles.

Our Operating Process

01

Technical Analysis

The cargo's dimensions, weight, center of gravity and special transport requirements are examined in detail.

02

Route Planning

Physical constraints along the transport route (bridge heights, road widths, bend radii) are investigated.

03

Permits and Regulations

The special transport permits, escort vehicles and transit approvals required by each country are obtained.

04

Equipment Mobilization

Suitable lowbed trailers, modular trailers, cranes and lifting equipment are dispatched to the project site.

05

Loading and Securing

The cargo is loaded onto the vehicle using special securing methods, with weight distribution checked.

06

Controlled Transport

The cargo is transported on the designated route, with escort accompaniment or under special conditions where required, and special precautions applied at critical crossing points.

Advantages

Customized Project Planning

A separate feasibility study and transport plan is prepared for every shipment.

Access to Specialized Equipment

Access to specialized transport vehicles such as lowbed trailers, modular trailers and multi-axle platforms.

Route Surveys

Priority route inspection and identification of physical obstacles where required.

Permit Management

Management and coordination of special transport permit processes across different countries.

Load Engineering

Safe loading achieved through center-of-gravity calculations and securing plans.

Risk Management

Project-based risk assessment and recommendation of suitable insurance solutions.

Vehicles & Equipment Used

We use lowbed trailers, multi-axle modular platforms, open-deck trailers and specialized transport trailers. Mobile cranes and hydraulic lifting systems are coordinated for loading and unloading. Vehicle and equipment selection is determined on a project basis according to the size and weight of the cargo.

Frequently Asked Questions

Cargo that exceeds the capacity of a standard tautliner trailer (generally 24 tons or 13.6 meters in length) is treated as project transport. Any cargo requiring special equipment due to its weight, height, width or length falls within this scope.

Out-of-gauge cargo transport requires a special transport permit under each country's own regulations. We track these permit processes on a country-by-country basis and coordinate the necessary applications on your behalf.

Because every project is unique, rather than a standard tariff, a custom price quotation is prepared based on factors such as the cargo's characteristics, the equipment to be used, the route, permit requirements and timeframe.

Yes, we coordinate the supply and operation of the cranes and lifting equipment required within the scope of the project. The crane capacity and type needed is determined according to the weight and dimensions of the cargo.
