Oversized transport poses unique challenges for hauliers and shippers alike. When the size of the goods to be transported exceeds the capacity of conventional road, rail or even waterborne means of transport, route planning, road safety and obtaining permits require special attention. Road transport plays a particularly important role in the case of oversized international shipments, as in most cases the cargo is transported to its final destination by road in a truck with a widenable tarpaulin.

For oversized transport, a number of special transport solutions can be used, such as the use of flat-rack containers, which allow the transport of larger goods by sea. If river shipping is required, we can also arrange this. In project cargo transport, we can also solve special tasks where a combination of different modes of transport is required to ensure that the cargo reaches its destination in the safest and most cost-effective way.

n the case of machinery transport, i.e. the transport of machines, agricultural machinery, special equipment, it often happens that the size or weight of the goods to be transported significantly exceeds the usual transport parameters, i.e. oversized consignments, special transport. In such cases, special transport solutions and equipment are required, as standard means of transport are not sufficient for the task. In the case of oversize transport, it is important not only to provide the appropriate truck, but also to obtain various permits and to use vehicles to accompany and guide the load.

The cost of oversize transport depends on a number of factors. When calculating the cost, the size and weight of the load, the type of vehicle required, the cost of permits, the use of escort vehicles, the length and difficulty of the route and the cost of insurance must all be taken into account. Unique, specialised transport often involves additional costs, but with proper planning and expertise these costs can be optimised.

Choosing the right vehicle: the first step is to choose the right vehicle for the transport. For oversized loads, specialised trucks such as flatbed trailers, platform vehicles, or even modular transport vehicles are often used to move the load safely and efficiently.

Planning the optimal route: Detailed route planning is essential for oversized transport, taking into account the specificities of road, rail or even waterway routes, the load capacity of bridges, the height of tunnels and traffic restrictions.

Obtaining permits: Permits can be particularly difficult to obtain for oversized shipments, which often exceed the standard limits of road transport. Road haulage in Budapest and other areas of Hungary often requires special permits to ensure that the consignment meets the regulations.

Provision of escort vehicles: oversized loads often require escort vehicles to help ensure safe passage, alert other road users to the special load and coordinate traffic.

Securing the cargo: Securing oversized cargo is key, as such goods are often of significant value and damage can cause serious damage. In addition to taking out insurance, it is important to properly secure and protect the cargo to minimise the risk of damage during transit.

Our staff will monitor the cargo continuously to ensure that it arrives safely and on time. We take care of every detail of the transport, from obtaining permits to taking out insurance. We will find the most suitable and cost-effective transport solution for you, taking into account your needs and market opportunities.

When transporting oversized goods, attention must be paid to every detail. For example, when preparing the shipment, it is essential to pack and secure it properly to ensure that the load does not move during transport. For example, transporting a ship by road requires a special truck, careful planning and experienced drivers. Even the smallest details are important in such projects, as moving cargo often costs millions of dollars and can be a major logistical challenge.

Transporting overweight and oversized machinery also requires special attention. In such cases, challenges arise not only in road transport, but also in rail, sea and even air transport. Oversized and overweight transport requires strict rules to be followed and goods to be properly protected. For example, if a heavy machine needs to be transported across the country, it may be necessary to plan a special route that takes into account the load capacity and size limits of the infrastructure along the way.

Because we' re at home with unique logistics solutions. Thanks to decades of experience, we know exactly what challenges you face when it comes to oversized and overweight shipments and how to manage these challenges efficiently and safely.

We are at home in both domestic and international oversize transport. It doesn't matter whether you need to move a large volume of machinery from one country to another for a large corporation or individual pieces of equipment for a small company. Whether you need to relocate an entire factory or get specialist construction materials to their destination quickly and reliably, we have a solution with our wide-loading tarpaulin trucks and permanent oversize permits.

Whether you need transport in the centre of Budapest or in the furthest corners of Europe, we have the right solution for you.
