Linear East Africa is very experienced in handling project cargo, whether it be the re-location of a factory; the movement of oversize cargo, such as generators or large earth-moving equipment, or an ongoing project involving multiple movements of all sizes.

Complex as it is, project cargo does not fit into standard dimensions or weight restrictions, which is why it requires a specialist freight forwarder to manage the shipment.

Project cargo often requires specialist moving, lifting, carrying equipment and the planning of the project is complex too, not only does it take a team of local experts, but also global associates with a hands-on attitude to ensure the cargo is handled responsibly.

Beyond the normal freight forwarding shipping procedures many other factors must be taken into consideration, such as exceptional dimensions & weight, critical aspects, a need for specialized transit, risk factors, loading/unloading procedures, onboard arrangements and always a contingency plan.
