Realogistics provided air export transportation services for an important client, handling the shipment of oversized and overweight machinery

On February 2, 2023, Realogistics received a commission from an important overseas client to handle the air export transportation of oversized and overweight machinery to Canada. Upon receiving the client's request, our company immediately contacted the domestic shipper to arrange for pickup and verify customs documents.

Cargo Information:

Packaging Machinery in Cartons

1 Pallet: 3474kg, 19.23m³

Transportation Mode and Route:

Land transportation: Pickup from the Qingdao factory to Qingdao Jiaodong Airport

Air transportation: Qingdao Jiaodong Airport to YVR Airport in Canada (including truck transfer)

Operational Process:

The dimensions of the cargo are 418x230x200cm, which requires transportation by a cargo aircraft. Realogistics actively sought feasible solutions and competitive prices, gaining approval from the Canadian customer. Ultimately, we selected 5Y Airlines for air transportation from Qingdao to LAX in the United States, followed by truck transfer to the YVR port in Canada.

Due to the consignee's request for the cargo to arrive at the destination port as soon as possible, we urgently contacted the trucking company to discuss pickup time with the shipper and arranged for a swift pickup and direct delivery to Qingdao Airport. The cargo contains motors, and both Qingdao Airport and the airline require advance identification of non-hazardous goods containing motors. Therefore, we coordinated with our airport colleagues in advance to handle the identification process. Subsequently, we successfully cleared customs promptly and caught the earliest flight.

Operational Challenges:

The cargo is oversized, so it was necessary to arrange for forklifts in advance and determine the loading and unloading plan for pickup at the factory and unloading at Qingdao Airport. Prior to the air shipment, we coordinated with the airline to determine the palletizing requirements and used suitable padding to prevent excessive weight from damaging the aircraft.

The cargo ultimately arrived at the destination port, YVR, smoothly and on time, receiving unanimous praise from the shipper and the important overseas client.
