Project cargo is complex cargo which does not fit into the standard dimensions or weight restrictions of mass container freight, and therefore requires a specialist freight forwarder to manage the shipment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Project cargo cannot be handled like normal freight shipments, it often requires specialist moving equipment, and transportation of the freight often requires complex planning, demanding a team of local and global associates with a hands-on approach to ensure your freight is handled responsibly.<\/p>\n

In addition to normal freight forwarding shipping procedures, the team at Mercator also takes the following factors into consideration when working with project cargo:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
