🌍 Complete Guide to Shipping Heavy Equipment Overseas
Shipping heavy equipment overseas can involve several steps. However, with an experienced logistics partner, the process becomes much easier. Below is a clear breakdown of shipping methods, sample costs, the logistics process, auction pickup services, inland hauling, and customs considerations for machinery headed to Indonesia.
🚢 Shipping Methods for Heavy Equipment
Choose a method that fits your machine’s size, weight, and running condition:
