International Heavy Equipment and Oversized Cargo Hauling Options
When transporting your oversized and heavy cargo to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, you can rely on A-1 Freight Forwarding to adhere to all standard industry moving procedures. Roll-on/roll-off (RoRo) shipping is a popular and cost-effective freight transport method. The simplest method of transport is used mostly by self-propelled vehicles. Your motorcar will be driven onto ramps inside the ship's hull and then fastened to mounts there. You can also choose to ship your cargo in a container if that is more convenient for you. Hauling containers are available in lengths of 20 and 40 feet, although these may not be sufficient for heavier or bulkier items. They cost more, but they offer better protection from the weather.
If your item is too large for a container and not able to propel onto the ship, then transporting via LoLo (Lift On/Lift Off) would be a way to go. With the help of a crane operator, your cargo is lifted and placed onto the ship. This is a very good way to ship all sorts of large and heavy items since they will be lifted and placed on top of the ship. A bit more expensive than other methods of transport due to the man hours involved. You can use a flat rack to get your oversized cargo to Mauritania. Flat racks only have sides on the short side of the rack, so freight can extend out the side of the open container during transit. Very versatile as it can be used to ship mostly anything not made available by the other shipping options.
