It is easy to transport cargo from one point to another, if it fits into the norms stipulated by the relevant rules for oversized cargo. But what if the cargo is non-standard?
Instructions
Step 1
Bulky non-standard cargo can be classified as oversized cargo, for example, special equipment - excavators, tractors, etc. In these cases, the transportation of oversized cargo encounters a number of formal additional conditions and restrictions, which are sometimes very difficult to take into account. The conditions for such transportation include obtaining appropriate permits, coordination with various services, for example, with the customs department.
Step 2
The main document regulating the transportation of oversized cargo is "Instruction for the transportation of bulky and heavy cargo by road on the roads of the Russian Federation."
Step 3
First you need to know which cargo is oversized. These are loads with a height exceeding 400 cm, a width of 225 cm, a length of more than 20 m. There is also a weight limit. So, heavy loads include those whose weight, taking into account the weight of the vehicle, exceeds 38 tons per axle of the vehicle. The main problem with the transportation of such goods is the potential danger to other road users and the creation of emergency situations on the roads.
Step 4
Special vehicles are used to move oversized items. For example, trucks with an open platform and a height of up to one meter, as well as trawls. Such vehicles allow transporting special equipment, oversized containers (tanks), etc.
Step 5
A lot of troubles can be caused by situations with the placement of oversized cargo, their loading and unloading from transport. That is why such situations should be entrusted to specialized structures involved in the transportation of oversized cargo.
Step 6
Carefully consider the choice of a shipping company, clarify its experience in this matter and the availability of the necessary equipment corresponding to your specific situation. Only this, to some extent, guarantees the safety of your cargo and the absence of problems during its transportation.
