What is Heavy Cargo Transportation?
Heavy cargo transportation refers to the movement of shipments and loads that require special expertise and equipment due to their large dimensions, heavy weight, and specific characteristics. This type of cargo includes oversized and heavy parts, large industrial machinery, substantial metal structures, and other equipment. Transporting these large items necessitates special methods and equipment.
For heavy cargo transportation, specific permits from organizations and authorities are required. These permits are issued to ensure safety and minimize the risks associated with transporting heavy and oversized loads. In some cases, escort teams may also be needed for the safety and ease of transporting heavy cargo.
Key Factors in Heavy Cargo Transportation
In light of the new policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran, manufacturing companies, including those in steel, metallurgy, and construction, must source their electricity through gas turbine transfers. Notably, Arka Logistics International Transport Company has experience in transporting and acquiring these sanctioned goods for Iran.
