Our Sheffield based Project Forwarding division supported LS Cargo Solutions with a specialist out-of-gauge project. This latest project was the collection, loading, securing and movement to quay for an Oil Cooling Equipment, which was being exported to Sweden. For the first leg of its journey, this specialist equipment had to travel from its load point in Lincoln to the loading depot in Southampton, the planning for which had to be meticulous, facilitating dimensions of 2×40 FR containers, containing 4x crates 498x443x307cm (10,825.00kg each) and 1 crate 371x140x222cm (2167.00kg).
The responsibility of handling this movement was entrusted to DGL and our expert team, who organised the loading/lashing and securing of the OOG Cargo. The 5 pieces of Oil Cooling Equipment were collected from the loading site in Lincoln by DGL and were loaded onto/into the containers before being trucked down to the loading depot in Southampton. Liasing with our hauler daily ensured we had police escorts in place at the correct time and location enabling a streamlined process, resulting in hassle-free loading and transportation down to Southampton. Once the specialist cargo arrived in Southampton, DGL successfully unloaded the units from the trailers onto the flat-racks for sailing, whilst ensuring that the condition of the cargo remained the same.
Throughout the entirety of the process, DGL ensured that the customer LS Cargo were regularly updated with regards to the status of their project from the very beginning and until the cargo had been delivered successfully.
Partnering with Denholm Good Logistics has enabled LS Cargo to transport this specialist cargo smoothly, safely and on schedule. Throughout the project, DGL team guaranteed that the clients needs were adhered to, and provided the best service possible.
