We were instructed to arrange the shipping of an Airport Cargo Scissor lift machine from Heathrow to final destination Christchurch, New Zealand.\u00a0 Due to the extremely low ground clearance of the machine we had to position a mobile crane to lift the item up on the back of the trailer we had positioned.\u00a0As we were operating within restricted airspace it was necessary to notify the airport authorities that there would be a crane operating with an extended jib in the air within close proximity to the run way.\u00a0 Once the item was loaded to the trailer we had it delivered to our cargo handling partners in Southampton docks and it was then loaded to a 40\u2019 Flat Rack container for export to New Zealand.\u00a0 This whole process only took 4 hours to complete on a Friday afternoon, the key to a smooth operation is good planning.<\/p>\n

If you have some bulky cargo or a project shipment of several items coming up be sure to give our experienced team a call us on 02392 75 65 75 to discuss your options fully.<\/p>\n
