In transportation, heavy lift refers to the handling and installation of heavy items which are indivisible, and of weights generally accepted to be over 100 tons. Characteristic for heavy-lift goods is the absence of standardization, which requires individual transport planning and special arrangement on the itinerary. In most countries it also required specific authorizations that could take several weeks to be delivered.

Break bulk is the system of transporting goods in pieces separately, rather than being shipped in a container. In this case goods are shipped in crates, bags, boxes, drums, or barrels for instance. These types of cargo are usually large in sizes and dimensions.

Depending on the type of freight, the origin and destination of the cargo, our teams will determine which solution best suits your cargo.

ECS could provide packing solutions in several countries and under several (UPLR, SEILA…).
