What to know when booking industrial equipment moving services

Follow these recommendations when organising plant machinery transport or industrial equipment shipping:

• Provide the exact dimensions and weight of the equipment when placing your order.
• Prepare and secure your equipment according to our packing guidelines.
• Prepare the equipment or machinery to be collected on the ground floor, if possible. Please inform us if you need extra assistance during collection, such as forklifts and tail-lifts.

How to prepare plant machinery and industrial equipment for shipping

When in need to transport heavy or large machinery, follow this guideline and prepare your equipment properly for shipping. The best way to transport plant machinery and industrial equipment is by palletising or crating the shipment.

1. Wrap the equipment with bubble wrap or foil, to protect it from moisture or dust.
2. Place the machinery or equipment on a pallet or crate. Block and brace it with wooden, plastic, or metal obstacles to keep cargo from sliding.
3. If you are shipping machinery with wheels, use straps, blocks or bars to prevent wheels from spinning.
4. Use foam cushioning for the inner corners and ages of the crate to protect the shipment.
5. Close the crate and fix it on a pallet if needed.
