When is special transport better than standard transport?

Special transport is better than standard transport when size, weight, sensitivity, dangerous goods classification, temperature requirement or unloading conditions create increased risk. Standard solutions are useful for goods that are easy to handle and have no special technical or operational requirements.

It becomes critical with machinery, plant components, oversized goods, sensitive industrial products or project cargo. If the wrong vehicle choice, insufficient packaging or unclear unloading could lead to damage, delays or additional costs, a special solution should be checked.

GLOBALSPED evaluates on a shipment-specific basis whether standard transport, special transport, project logistics or a combined solution is better suited to the goods, route, destination region and consignee requirements.
