The problem of transporting cargo sooner or later arises in any enterprise that tries to develop business in other territories. Planning the transportation of an object of standard sizes is quite simple - just pick up a suitable transport and create a route. However, when it comes to an item of non-standard sizes (oversized), it becomes much more difficult to organize everything here.
Oversized cargo is an object whose characteristics (weight, shape, size) do not meet standard technical requirements. Basically, it includes construction equipment, agricultural machinery, a variety of metal structures, out-of-service aircraft, ships, and more. Due to its characteristics, such an item cannot be transported in a closed vehicle, as a result, its movement becomes difficult and expensive.
Another feature of the movement of such objects is that this process can create conditions for the occurrence of accidents, damage to various structures, buildings and power lines. It is for this reason that transportation is regulated by special rules and technical regulations. As for International Cargo Transportation, here you should also take into account the peculiarities of road regulation and the current legislation in different countries.
What is an oversized cargo permit?
Such cargo can be transported only if there is a special document , which can be obtained from the National Police Unit. This permit is a confirmation of the safety of transportation of oversized objects and entitles carriers to move cargo along a planned route.
The document is issued on the basis of the carrier's application, which is being coordinated with a number of services. These include bridge facilities, the electrification service, owners of crossings and regional Avtodors. All this is necessary in order for the cargo to reach its destination safe and sound, withoutdamaging the structures that come across on the way. As a rule, all this is handled by a transport company.
During the coordination, all these services can request from the carrier a platform diagram, drawings of the object itself, and weighing results. The whole procedure takes from 10 days to several months. However, if you plan to transport internationally, then you will have to wait longer, because you need to apply to foreign services.
