PROJECT TRANSPORTATION
The business of project transportation is growing at a fast pace. Transportation of the cargo more safely and smoothly becomes essential not to negatively affect infrastructure or other vehicles. The process of project transportation begins with loading the shipment from the owner, the manufacturer, the cargo ship, other cars, the warehouse, or the factory. To ensure smooth transportation, a suitable wrecker or tow truck is necessary.
Genex Logistics is considered one of the top freight forwarding companies in India, and we assure our clients of completing the whole freight forwarding process in a smoother and faster way.
HOW CAN PROJECT TRANSPORTATION BE DEFINED?
Project transportation refers to a shipping process involving OOG (out-of-gauge) cargo from the point of origin to the final destination in particular vehicles. The entire process may include the shipment of any appliances or equipment required in a domestic and international project and coordinating the shipping operation till the completion of the process.
In other words, the term project transportation can be defined as the transportation of the entire plant, large consignments of manufacturing equipment, industrial equipment, etc., it is considered the most complex method of cargo movement, and it requires skilled craftsman, training, moving equipment, and teamwork. It covers various areas of cargo shipment that are mentioned below:
- Project analysis before movement

FEATURES OF PROJECT TRANSPORTATION OF GENEX LOGISTICS
As the cargos of our company are transferred o the vehicles by cranes, it requires higher precautions such as complex grounds, strong ropes, and capstans. We conduct engineering processes of loading and unloading with utmost care. Along with that, we ensure that the driver and the workforce are experienced and have enough knowledge about road conditions, heavy cargo, and ground conditions.
Another essential feature of our project transportation is to disassemble the factor machines of a company completely, transfer them to another country and then reassemble them at the final destination.
We are aware that the factories can be moved entirely to some other place, and the whole factories can be moved from the countries with a higher workforce cost to those with a lower crew price. Engineering services are essential for moving factories to disassemble and reassemble, so you can take help from our experienced professionals to reduce the costs.
PERMIT FOR PROJECT TRANSPORTATION
An individual does not complete project transportation; instead, it is the outcome of teamwork. One of the significant steps involved in the process is to inform the highway authorities, district authorities, and traffic police about the transportation of heavy goods vehicles. So, that safety can be ensured with their coordination.
Along with the transportation permit, road report also plays a vital role. In some countries, the transporter must search for the related engineering company and ask for the issuance of the report. The logistics company bears all these costs.
In the case of out-of-gauge vehicles, permission needs to be obtained to be on the road even if the cars are empty. Driving these heavy vehicles requires a road permit because of the road maintenance and the related costs.
It becomes costly if the transporter seeks road permits for the cargo of 150 tons or more from the engineering firms. And you must be aware that cargo transportation is allowed during the day only.
