What Project Cargo Operation Was Recently Managed by BERGÉ Forwarding?
BERGÉ Forwarding, a member of the Mega Move Alliance (MMA), recently completed a door-to-door project cargo movement involving an oversized skid and accessories. The cargo measured 19.60 M × 6.05 M × 4.50 M and weighed 78 tons, requiring specialized equipment and careful planning across multiple transport stages.
The project highlights BERGÉ Forwarding’s expertise in handling complex project logistics operations within a global project network.
How Was the Oversized Skid Handled Inside the Manufacturing Facility?
The operation began at the manufacturer’s facility, where the skid was placed on a Self-Propelled Modular Transporter (SPMT) to allow precise maneuvering through tight spaces and safe exit from the facility.
Once outside, the cargo was temporarily positioned on steel stools, allowing the SPMT to disengage before the skid was transferred onto a specialized heavy transport vehicle.
How Was the Multimodal Project Logistics Operation Completed?
The skid was transported during a carefully planned night road operation before continuing its journey via river barge to the main port. From there, it was loaded onto a vessel bound for its final destination.
Upon arrival, BERGÉ Forwarding coordinated the final inland delivery to the client’s premises, completing a fully integrated project logistics operation.
