How Much Does it Cost to Ship Industrial Equipment?

There is no universal price, but we can give you the factors that affect the cost of shipping:

Mode of transportation: Air charters are more expensive than ocean or ground transportation

Distance: Shipping milling machines across the country would be cheaper, than transporting them overseas

Additional expenses: Such as insurance, permits, customs duties, and so on

Size and Weight: The heavier the cargo, the higher the cost

Season: There are high and low seasons in shipping, and they affect the final cost

International Shipping of Milling Machines

Roll-on-Roll-off (Ro-Ro)

It’s a method of shipping where equipment is driven directly onto and off a ship

Full-Container Load (FCL)

This means the entire container is dedicated to your shipment. It’s a popular choice for shipping equipment due to the protection and control it offers

Flat Rack

Excellent choice for transporting equipment, especially those that are oversized or have dimensions exceeding standard container limits

Air Cargo

The fastest method for transporting milling machines or their parts, but it is high cost

International Shipping Compliance, Regulations, and Restrictions for Milling Machines

The rules differ from country to country, but the common ones are:

  • Export control (ITAR, EAR, and so on)
  • Import regulations (tariffs & duties, non-tariff barriers, safety standards, customs clearance)
  • Transport regulations (shipping documentation, dangerous goods regulations, weight and dimensions restrictions, insurance and others)
  • Technical standards (differences in safety standards, emissions, and noise regulations)

Industrial Equipment Moving Services Across The Country

Flatbed

These trailers offer a basic, open platform for securing and milling machine hauling

Step-Deck

Lowered rear platform, provides the necessary clearance to transport machinery legally without requiring special permits

RGN

Their most significant advantage is the ability to carry high loads

Restrictions on Moving Milling Machines

Hauling milling machines over long distances comes with restrictions and regulations, such as:

  • Road regulations (speed limits, width and height restrictions, road use permits)
  • Transport regulations (oversized load permits, escort vehicles, route planning, insurance)
  • Additional regulations (seasonal restrictions, weight limits, local regulations)
