  • Transport regulations (shipping documentation, dangerous goods regulations, weight and dimensions restrictions, insurance and others)
  • Technical standards (differences in safety standards, emissions, and noise regulations)

After encountering multiple challenges while attempting to transport our ambulance from Canada to the United States through a different company, we reached out to Atlantic Project Cargo for assistance. We were fortunate to be connected with Olga Smit at Atlantic Project Cargo, whose expertise swiftly facilitated the process, ensuring the successful delivery of our ambulance in under five days. We are profoundly appreciative of their exceptional speed and efficiency.
