Project Cargo & Heavy Lift
Project Cargo & Heavy Lift
Route surveys, specialised lifting, special-movement permits and delivery to site for industrial, energy and infrastructure projects.
How we work
Step by step, from first request to completion
Oversized cargo needs lead time: surveys and permits usually take 2–4 weeks before the move date.
Receive cargo specifications
Dimensions, weight, centre of gravity, lifting points and surface-protection requirements.
Route survey
Measure clearances, turning radii, weak bridges and power lines; prepare contingency plans.
Engineering plan
Method statement, lashing plan, axle-load calculations and lifting plan.
Permits
Special-movement permits, coordination with traffic police, the power utility and road authorities.
Mobilise equipment
Lowbed/modular trailers, crawler and mobile cranes, lashing gear and escort vehicles.
Lifting at origin
Lift onto the vehicle, secure, run safety checks and sign the condition record.
Escorted move
Move within permitted hours with pilot vehicles and continuous supervision at risk points.
Handover at site
Set down precisely on the foundation or plinth, inspect condition and sign the completion record.

What customers ask before signing
What information do you need to propose a plan?
Four minimum parameters: overall dimensions (L × W × H), weight, centre of gravity and the manufacturer’s lifting points. Technical drawings make the plan far more accurate.
How long do special-movement permits take?
Usually 7–15 working days, depending on how many road sections need permits and whether the power utility must be involved. It is the longest step, so start early before the planned move date.
Does oversized cargo have to move at night?
In most cases yes, as permits usually restrict time windows to limit traffic impact. The movement plan follows the permitted hours for each road section.
Do you deliver right to the construction site?
Yes. We deliver to the foundation or equipment plinth, including lifting and a condition handover record. A site survey is needed before delivery, as access routes often change with construction progress.
