KUSHINDALOGISTICS

Loads that do not fit a standard trailer.

Some cargo is too heavy, too wide or too long to travel like ordinary freight. We move this kind of project cargo to sites across the region, including ones far from the main roads.

Every move is planned before the load is lifted: the route, the permits, the trailer and the way the load is secured. Loads bound for a neighbouring country travel with transit documents we prepare at the port.

What we move

  • Overweight loads

    Cargo heavier than a standard trailer and road limits allow.

  • Oversized and out-of-gauge

    Loads too wide, too long or too tall for a standard container or flatbed.

  • Project cargo

    Heavy equipment and materials for mining, energy and infrastructure projects.

  • Cross-border moves

    Abnormal loads delivered to the neighbouring countries as transit cargo.

How we plan an abnormal load

  1. 01

    Consultation

    We look at the cargo's weight, dimensions and lifting points, and agree the pick-up and delivery plan with you.

  2. 02

    Route survey

    We check the route for bridges, weight limits, overhead lines and tight turns before anything moves.

  3. 03

    Permits and risk assessment

    We apply for the abnormal load permits and assess the risks on the route, with a plan for each one.

  4. 04

    The move

    The load is secured on the right trailer and moved on the planned route. You get updates until it is delivered.

Project cargo

Mining, energy and infrastructure projects need heavy equipment and materials delivered to site, often in a set order and to a schedule. We plan the transport around the project: what arrives first, where it is offloaded, and which pieces need special trailers or permits.

When the cargo arrives by sea, we clear it at the port as well, so you deal with one contact for the whole delivery.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as an abnormal load?

A load that is heavier, wider, longer or taller than the standard limits for road vehicles. It needs a permit and a planned route to travel.

How early should we contact you?

As early as you can. Route surveys and permits take time, so sending the cargo details early gives us room to plan properly.

What information do you need for a quote?

The weight and dimensions of each piece, the lifting points if there are any, the pick-up location and the delivery site.

Can you move abnormal loads across the border?

Yes. Abnormal loads for neighbouring countries move as transit cargo, with the transit documents and the permits for the route.
