Project Cargo and Heavy-Lift Shipping
Project cargo is the transport of heavy, large and out-of-gauge cargo that does not fit standard containers, planned with engineering and moved with special equipment such as low-bed trailers. BoldProject plans and manages these shipments from the port to the destination.
What is project cargo?
Project cargo covers factory equipment, construction machinery and similar heavy or out-of-gauge cargo that does not fit a standard container. Unlike a standard shipment, it needs comprehensive planning and engineering work before loading.
How we work
We build a plan around each cargo: route and equipment are chosen according to the cargo's dimensions and weight, special equipment such as low-bed trailers is arranged, and the process is managed and reported from loading to arrival.
Spare parts and maintenance shipments
Companies that ship heavy equipment also need small equipment and spare parts for maintenance and repair. We plan these separately by air freight or LCL.

Which equipment is used for project cargo?
Special equipment such as low-bed trailers is used according to the cargo's dimensions and weight; the equipment is decided during the planning stage.
Which cargo counts as project cargo?
Factory equipment, construction machinery and other heavy, out-of-gauge industrial cargo that does not fit a standard container.
What information should I send to request a quote?
