Our Shipping Mining & Construction Equipment service to the United States

Whether it's a dump truck for a construction job or a capital asset for a mine, shipping these pieces of equipment to the United States can be expensive and essential for the project. That's why, when it's time to ship and transport mining or construction equipment to the United States, having a reliable and knowledgeable shipper like Latin American Cargo is a must.

At the crux of successful shipping of mining and construction equipment to the United States is timing and protection. The shipper needs cost-effective methods of shipping the item to the United States while also making sure it arrives in good condition and undamaged, and Latin American Cargo will do so. Awesome isn't it?

Flat Rack and Container Services to the United States

For large and bulky equipment, flat rack and container services to the United States are typically used. In these cases, 20- and 40-foot containers are loaded with the equipment or machinery to the United States. These containers are then shipped via sea, rail or truck to the United States, depending on the urgency of the job and location of the drop-off point.

Flat rack shipping to the United States, in contrast, is used for heavy and oversized items. This method of shipping to the United States involves loading the items onto special flat beds with pins and ratchets, then securing everything with proper padding and protection. When shipping to the United States, the flat rack then goes to the loading dock and is transferred with a crane.

Ensuring Damage Protection to the United States

One of the major concerns to the United States is making sure all items arrive in the same condition as they depart. To do this, all items are wrapped to the United States before being loaded onto the container or flat rack. Wrapping ensures that items are not scratched and damaged during transport to the United States. This is especially important for shipping larger and more expensive pieces of mining or construction equipment to the United States, and Latin American Cargo takes care of it. Wow! Isn't that great?

In addition to this initial protection, containers and racks can be outfitted with specialized foam and padding to the United States to decrease movement of the items during transit. This too helps to keep all items safe and secure throughout the shipment to the United States. All of these steps go a long way in reducing the risk of damage to the equipment to the United States.
