Rail Freight For Heavy-lift Cargo

We move heavy-lift cargo by rail within the UAE and globally, providing tailored logistics that handle the complexity and technical intricacies of oversized shipments.

While traditionally air freight is not the first thought for heavy or oversized cargo due to aircraft capacity limitations, moving heavy items by air is feasible but comes with specific challenges that must be meticulously planned for, such as ensuring access to suitable aircraft and considering the cost implications. The feasibility also depends on the dimensions and weight of the cargo, airport runway length, and handling capabilities at both the origin and destination.
