Specialized Out-of-Gauge (OOG) & Project Cargo Shipping Solutions

Out-of-Gauge (OOG) cargo refers to freight that exceeds the dimensions of standard shipping containers, making it impossible to transport via conventional methods. This can include items such as heavy machinery, large industrial equipment, and construction materials. OOG cargo typically requires specialized transport solutions such as flat-rack containers, open-top containers, or custom-built crates for sea freight.

At Yes2Ship, we provide tailored solutions for OOG cargo, ensuring your oversized goods are safely loaded, secured, and transported by sea, road, or air, depending on the destination and urgency.

Project cargo involves the transportation of large, complex, or high-value items that often require detailed planning, customized logistics, and coordination between multiple modes of transport. It’s common in industries like construction, oil and gas, and energy. Unlike standard freight, project cargo often includes oversized or heavy items that need special permits, equipment, and handling.

Yes2Ship specializes in project cargo logistics, providing end-to-end solutions that ensure your high-value or complex cargo reaches its destination safely and on time, no matter the size or weight.

Transporting OOG and project cargo presents several challenges:

Permits and regulations: Oversized loads often require special permits, depending on the route and the countries involved.

Specialized equipment: Moving heavy or oversized cargo requires specialized equipment, such as cranes, flatbeds, or low-loaders.

Route planning: Careful planning is needed to avoid obstacles such as bridges, tunnels, or weight restrictions on roads. At Yes2Ship, we manage these complexities by coordinating with local authorities, securing the necessary permits, and planning the most efficient routes for OOG and project cargo, ensuring smooth and timely transport.

OOG and project cargo services are commonly used in industries that require the transport of large or heavy machinery, such as:

Construction and infrastructure: Shipping cranes, building materials, and prefabricated structures.

Energy: Moving wind turbine blades, transformers, and other large-scale equipment for solar, wind, oil, and gas projects.

Mining and agriculture: Transporting heavy machinery and oversized equipment to remote locations.

Yes2Ship serves a wide range of industries, offering customized logistics solutions to meet the unique requirements of each sector’s OOG and project cargo needs.

Handling and loading OOG cargo requires careful planning and the use of specialized equipment. Key considerations include:

Weight distribution: Ensuring that the cargo is evenly distributed to prevent accidents or damage during transport.

Securing the load: Using straps, chains, or specialized securing devices to keep the cargo stable throughout the journey.

Loading equipment: Employing cranes, forklifts, or other heavy equipment to lift and position the cargo safely onto the transport vehicle or vessel.

At Yes2Ship, we handle every aspect of loading and securing OOG cargo, ensuring it is transported safely from start to finish, whether by road, sea, or air.
