Project Cargo is the one of most complex kinds of transportation in the logistics industry. Completing a project cargo shipment often necessitates the movement of oversized goods by unconventional methods via land, sea or air to their final destination, and may include special accommodations like road survey or police escort.
In logistics, the term Project Cargo usually suggests moving high-volume, high-price and time-sensitive freight. Individual pieces can include tractors, bulldozers, excavators, campervans, motor homes, buses, aircraft, yachts and sailing boats. Moving fragile goods or oversized heavy machinery requires the specialised knowledge and skills of an experienced forwarder such as Colless Young.
Colless Young’s freight forwarding services can be of assistance to a diverse range of industries, including manufacturing, energy, mining, construction and infrastructure. Activities involving oil and gas, wind power, engineering and related industries are heavily-dependent on this type of transportation, due to the need for detailed logistics processes and care. Other industries include aerospace and the military.
Projects can face obstacles like time constraints, tight delivery dates and safety requirements, thus they require the most detailed shipment plans. We assess your requirements and have your Project Cargo delivered on site, on time and on budget. This includes everything from the initial planning stages to the final delivery of project materials.
Sometimes, project cargo is quite complex and entails changes to infrastructure, combination of modes, handling equipment, specific time frames and other intricate requirements.
It can involve multiple shipments and may require the use of cranes, trucks, rail, planes and ships. Project cargo logistics may also involve disassembling items for transportation and reassembling them upon delivery.
We can arrange to have heavy industrial and earthmoving machinery dismantled and/or cleaned to meet Australian quarantine standards, assist with the preparation and presentation of documentation for Customs and provide expert assistance with Duty and GST calculations.
With our international network, Colless Young will deliver a streamlined cargo solution for your project, whether it’s heavy machinery or temporary display equipment for a trade show.
