They used 3 x 40 HC and 1 x 20 containers for transporting this break bulk shipment. The cargo which had a dimension of 600 x 270 x 270 cm was moved via a vehicle with a length of 19.70 metres and 7 axle lines. Additionally, they had to hire the largest crane for lifting this OOG shipment.

In the words of Mr. Riccardo Stocco, the Managing Director of Sev Stante, “As a company specializing in the door-to-door shipment of OOG cargo, our team managed to deliver the cargo within deadline like clockwork. Nevertheless, the intercontinental movement of a shipment of such massive dimensions surely entailed a few challenges. Finding a break bulk departure vessel to accept this heavy cargo and pick up the presses 40 days before the vessel departure, as per shipper request was a tricky task that our team seamlessly executed.”

Congratulations to Sev Stante Overseas and all the best for their upcoming projects!
