Machine dimensions and weight
We take the width, length, height, gross weight and center of gravity of the machine as the basis of the vehicle and lifting plan.
Planning inputs
What we review in machinery and equipment transport before moving the cargo
Sensitive points
We determine the lashing, lifting and support points of the machine, along with sensitive surfaces and vibration tolerance, together.
Lifting equipment
We plan the need for a crane, forklift or special attachment in advance according to the loading and unloading site.
Scope
In machinery and equipment transport, we plan the cargo by its dimensions and sensitivity.
In machinery and equipment transport on Turkey-origin Europe and Balkan lines, we carry industrial machines and production equipment with the appropriate vehicle and handling according to their dimensions, weight and sensitivity. Because machine cargo requires more technical preparation than standard freight, we always start the work by inspecting the cargo.
In industrial machine transport, we handle vehicle selection, lifting equipment, the securing method and the delivery site together. When needed, we include heavy transport, out-of-gauge transport and permit processes in the same operation file.
Operations
Operational topics in machinery and equipment transport
Technical inspection
We determine the machine dimensions, center of gravity and sensitive points before the vehicle plan.
Vehicle and attachment
We select a curtainside, mega, lowbed or special-attachment vehicle according to the structure of the machine.
Lifting and securing
We design the crane or forklift plan, lashing and vibration insulation according to the site.
Site coordination
We manage the appointment at the loading and unloading point, entry permission and equipment readiness together.
Which sectors
Equipment transport is critical for machine manufacturers and industrial investors.
Machine manufacturers, metalworking and plastic-injection plants, companies setting up food and packaging lines, along with businesses exporting second-hand machines, need machinery and equipment transport. We evaluate the technical data of your machine and the delivery site together and recommend a transport plan that minimizes the risk of damage.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about machinery and equipment transport
Which machines do you carry?
We carry industrial machines such as CNC machine tools, press and injection machines, generators, compressors, production-line equipment and the like.
Which vehicle is used in machinery transport?
We select a standard curtainside, mega, lowbed or special-attachment vehicle according to the machine dimensions and weight; if it is out-of-gauge, we switch to a heavy transport plan.
How are sensitive machines protected?
We secure the machine with lashing according to the center of gravity, vibration insulation and suitable packaging; we protect sensitive surfaces throughout the transport.
Do you provide equipment for loading and unloading the machine?
We plan the need for a crane, forklift or special attachment according to the loading and unloading site and carry out the site coordination together.
Is a permit needed in machinery transport?
If the machine exceeds the legal gauge or tonnage, an out-of-gauge permit and, if needed, an escort process are required; we assess this separately according to the route.

Transport notes related to this service
Choosing the vehicle for a full truckload
Legal limits, density, trailer type and delivery access — how we choose between standard, mega, refrigerated and lowbed equipment.
Why a transport quote gets revised
Dimensions, stackability, axle loads, delivery access and documents — the five things that change a plan after it has been priced.
What we need to quote a partial load
Loading metres, pallet dimensions, stackability and ready dates — the information a partial or groupage quote actually rests on.
