This was a challenging project as timing was a significant factor, however, a challenge and prospect to be gladly taken on board.
With fine size margins due to the height of the trucks, absolute precision planning was required for the loading phase, with only a few centimetres to spare as the trucks were loaded onto the vessel.
We sourced the best and most appropriate transport mode of choice for this project – the RORO vessel, perfect for this kind of cargo. With careful planning to ensure the ramps and vessel door were suitable for the huge size and weight of the trucks, our team ensured a very successful shipment from Southampton, UK onward to Laem Chabang, Thailand.
