ONE GROUP organizes international transportation of oversized cargo by air, sea, rail and road transport.
Transportation of oversized cargo is a special category that requires specific knowledge and experience in logistics. ONE GROUP specialists will assist in selecting transport, obtaining special permits, drawing up a competent route, and will help to consider alternative methods of transportation.
Air transportation is the fastest way to deliver oversized cargo to any point in the world. In most cases, the transportation of heavy, large-sized cargo requires specialized air freighter with wide and specially equipped hatches designed to receive oversized constructions. Sometimes it is possible to send prefabricated structures in several batches on a regular passenger flight in the cargo compartments of an aircraft, and this can significantly reduce transportation costs.
When sending oversized cargo by air, special attention is paid to preliminary choice of options and reservations, as well as delivery of cargo to the airport and handling operations, which may require additional equipment and permits. It is necessary to know the special rules for transporting of oversized cargo, to take into account various international and national requirements applicable to the packaging and securing of such cargo, as well as to the aircraft itself. Transporting of oversized cargo by air is a complex process requiring attention to special detail.
ONE GROUP specializes in international air transportation of various types of cargo. Our specialists will help organize delivery of oversized cargo by aircraft to Russia on time and at the best price.
Specific characteristics of international air transportation of oversized cargo:
-
Size and weight restrictions. Airlines set a maximum allowable weight for each type of aircraft; exceeding it may result in additional costs or even denial of transportation. One of the limitations is the size of the cargo compartments of aircraft. Therefore, when planning the transportation of large oversized cargo, it is necessary to take into account its weight, dimensions and to look for optimal solutions in order to comply with all the airline’s requirements.
-
Special packaging. Proper packaging and securing of cargo are an integral part of international air transportation, aimed at ensuring the safety and security of cargo. It is also important to take into account the characteristics of the type of cargo, for example, some cargo may be fragile or sensitive to environmental influences; in such cases, special materials and packaging technologies will be required.
-
Special rules for ground processing. When selecting a route, the logistic specialist must take into account the accessibility and technical capabilities of the airport ground areas and the availability of infrastructure for handling of oversized cargo.
-
Planning and coordination. All stages of international air transportation of oversized cargo must be carefully planned and coordinated — this will help minimize the risks of delays and avoid unnecessary costs.
