Project Cargo

Oversized equipment is complicated. We move:

✓ Heavy machinery ✓ Construction equipment ✓ Oversized loads (OOG) ✓ Project cargo of any size

Heavy-haul truck carrying project cargo

overview

Standard shipping handles standard containers. Project cargo doesn't fit containers.

Mining equipment. Heavy machinery. Construction cranes. Power generation units. Oversized loads need specialized coordination.

Most brokers treat project cargo like regular freight and miss critical coordination points. Routing restrictions. Weight distribution. Permits. Crane availability. Timeline management.

Trevart coordinates end-to-end project movement.

How We Plan Operations

HOW PROJECT CARGO WORKS

Step 1: You Define the Project You have oversized equipment arriving. You send specs: weight, dimensions, special handling needs, destination, installation deadline.

We assess what's needed: shipping mode, route, permits, special equipment.

Step 2: Multi-Modal Planning Project cargo often requires multiple transport modes:

  • Ocean freight (get to port)

  • Inland heavy transport (specialized truck or rail)

  • Crane/installation coordination (at destination)

We plan the entire journey, not just one segment.

Step 3: Logistics Coordination We coordinate across partners:

  • Shipping lines (confirm vessel space for oversized)

  • Port authorities (oversized cargo handling)

  • Road authorities (oversized permits, specialized trucking)

  • Crane operators (if needed for unloading)

  • End-destination (installation coordination)

Step 4: Movement & Tracking Cargo moves through each stage with real-time visibility.

Step 5: Installation Support At destination, we coordinate final placement and setup if needed.

HOW WE PLAN OPERATIONS

Section Subheadline: MULTI-MODAL PROJECT ASSESSMENT

Project cargo requires sophisticated planning before movement starts.

Planning process:

  • Assess cargo specs (weight, dimensions, fragility, special requirements)

  • Determine shipping mode (vessel space, rail, specialized truck)

  • Identify routing constraints (road weight limits, crane requirements)

  • Plan permits & compliance (oversize permits, road authority approvals)

  • Coordinate with crane/installation specialists if needed

  • Establish project timeline & milestones

  • Communicate plan to all partners

Wrong planning = delayed arrival, cost overruns, installation delays. Right planning = on-schedule, cost-controlled project execution.

How We Execute Services

COORDINATED MULTI-MODE MOVEMENT

Project cargo moves through multiple hands. We manage every transition.

Execution:

  • Pickup at origin (using appropriate equipment for cargo size/weight)

  • Transport to origin port (heavy-haul truck if needed)

  • Port loading (using port cranes for oversized handling)

  • Ocean freight (vessel with capacity for oversized)

  • Port arrival (Mombasa or destination port)

  • Port discharge (using port cranes)

  • Inland movement (specialized heavy-haul truck or rail)

  • Destination offloading (crane coordination if needed)

  • Installation site placement

Each transition requires coordination. We manage it.

How We Deliver Results

PROJECT TIMELINE & DELIVERY ASSURANCE

Project deadlines are immovable. We treat them that way.

Visibility & timeline management:

  • Project start notification (cargo ready for pickup)

  • Transit updates (at each mode: en route, at port, on vessel, arriving, on truck, at site)

  • Estimated arrival date & time (confirmed, updated daily)

  • Installation readiness (site preparation confirmed)

  • Delivery notification (cargo arrives, ready for installation)

  • Installation support (if cranes/equipment needed)

Key difference: We don't just move cargo. We deliver to project timeline.
