Over the years, Haitai Crane products have been exported to more than 70 countries including those in Central Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, North America, Europe, the Middle East, Australia and Africa. To ensure the safe delivery for customers, we also attach great concern on the transportation process.
It is vital important that the transport goes smoothly. We should take the safety during the transportation process into consideration but also choose an economical transportation so as to effectively save costs and make rational use of time.
We have rich experience in exporting and able to offer you some suggestion. Our company has established a long-term and stable partnership with renowned shipping companies to ensure the smooth transportation of cranes.
Road transport is suitable for transporting goods over short distances and for small machinery, such as small-tonnage hoists, trolleys, and less than 3-ton gantry cranes. However, road transport costs are relatively higher and it is not suitable for large-tonnage heavy equipment.
When it comes to large machinery and equipment and long distances, sea transport is often the preferred option. It is characterized by a relatively slow speed but lowest transportation costs. Importantly, we need to choose the appropriate route and ship type.
For large and heavy machinery, rail transport is more stable and faster than sea transport. However, it is only applicable to areas that are continuously covered by railways and is less affected by weather conditions.
Its cost is extremely high and not cost-effective for transporting large goods. And air transport doesn't support the large machinery and equipment. Instead, it is mainly used for transporting parts and other small items. Best choice for transporting small parts in emergency situations.
