Start with the dimensions. Build the movement around them.
Project cargo needs a shipment-specific review. Access, lifting, route constraints and carrier acceptance can influence the method and sequence. RAH coordinates the enquiry around these requirements and confirms the available scope before a transport commitment is made.
Information to include with your enquiry
- Piece dimensions and verified gross weights
- Technical drawings, lifting points and cargo photographs
- Collection and delivery site access
- Required equipment, shipment window and site contact details
Coordinate the site, equipment and port
A large piece may fit the transport equipment but still encounter access or handling limits at collection, transit or delivery. Identify site dimensions, available lifting equipment and the party responsible for each lift.
The plan should connect lifting, securing, road movement and port handling. Any route assessment, permit, engineering input or independent survey must be identified in the agreed scope rather than assumed.
GOOD TO KNOW
Your questions, answered.
What information should I send before requesting a rate?
Provide piece dimensions and weights, drawings, lifting points, photographs and both site addresses. Include the required shipment window and any known access or handling restrictions.
Can a project shipment combine different cargo types?
Send a complete cargo list, identifying standard-container, oversized and loose pieces separately. Equipment and routing are assessed for the full movement and each handover.
