Special Container OOG Cargo Booking Lashing Securing China USA /CANADA Door Delivery

Special equipment moves cargo that will not fit a standard box: out-of-gauge (OOG) cargo, flat rack, open top, platform and reefer containers, plus heavy lift and break bulk. We support both port-to-port and door-to-door modes, so a buyer can take the freight at the port or have it delivered to the door. We arrange the equipment, the lashing, the documentation, and the clearance.

One partner for equipment, securing, and compliance turns an awkward oversized load into a plannable shipment.

Scope runs from selecting the container type to the lashing and securing plan, the loading inspection at origin, the stowage plan and special cargo survey, the export declaration in China, and the import entry in the USA — with duty settled where DDP applies. Every node is tracked under one reference number.

Equipment, securing, and compliance sit with one accountable partner, so the shipper coordinates nothing.

The reference window is 25 to 40 days door to door by sea, longer for break bulk or heavy lift that requires a survey or a special lift. Pricing is built from the dimensions, weight, equipment type, lashing, and any survey, plus duty and tax where DDP applies. Because OOG cargo is charged on measurement as well as weight, the quote is built from confirmed dimensions rather than a flat rate.

Confirmed dimensions and equipment are what make an oversized quote accurate and a schedule reliable.

Flat rack containers suit overwidth or overlength cargo and top-loading, available from 20ft and 40ft to 40ft high cube, collapsible flat rack, and super rack. Open top containers suit overheight cargo loaded from above. Platform containers carry the heaviest oversized pieces. Reefer containers (20RF and 40RH) carry temperature-controlled cargo with a genset.

Matching the equipment to the dimensions is the first decision that keeps an OOG booking moving.

We provide a lashing and securing service to the carrier's requirement, using pre-lashed or break bulk stowage as the load demands, and record the loading inspection at origin with photos. A securing plan and, where required, a special cargo survey report document that the cargo was stowed to standard before the vessel sails.

A documented securing plan is what protects the cargo and satisfies the carrier's acceptance rules.

The file includes the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, stowage plan, lashing certificate, and any special cargo survey report, with OOG dimensions declared for the booking. We file the export declaration in China and the OOG customs clearance and port entry procedures in the USA, settling duty where DDP applies.

A complete document set is what clears an oversized shipment through both customs regimes without a hold.

We confirm dimensions and equipment, book the vessel space, produce a lashing and securing plan, perform the loading inspection at origin with photos, and issue a securing plan for the carrier. The booking, the lashing, and the inspection run as one service, so nothing is handed between vendors.

One booking, lashing, and inspection service is what keeps an OOG load carrier-ready at origin.

Both are available. Port-to-port means we deliver to the destination port and release the equipment to the buyer's nominated agent. Door-to-door means we clear under DDP and arrange the final mile to the address, including heavy haulage where the pieces need it. The securing and documentation are identical; only the handover point changes.

Choosing the handover point lets the buyer trade control for convenience without changing the securing standard.

On a door-to-door DDP move, the consignee provides only an address, an unloading capability note, and a contact. We file the entry, act as importer of record, and settle duty. On port-to-port, the buyer's agent collects the equipment at the port of entry with the release documents we provide.

No matter the mode, the special cargo paperwork stays with us.

Inspections and surveys are covered by this service. Examinations and any re-securing are managed by our team, and the standard coordination cost is absorbed so no surprise invoice reaches the importer. A pre-filing review of dimensions, classification, and permits keeps our examination rate low for the oversized cargo we move.

An inspection can add a day or two but never becomes the consignee's problem.

A quote requires the cargo description, exact dimensions, gross weight, lifting points, the equipment preference, and the delivery or handover point. Documentation is prepared by our team, and payment is accepted by T/T, PayPal, Western Union, or Bank Transfer.

Booking becomes a single exchange of facts, after which the shipper's work is done.

One reference number follows the equipment from booking to handover or signed delivery, with positions updated at each node and the proof-of-delivery or port release record closing the file.

A single tracked reference keeps an oversized move auditable end to end.

All-risk cargo insurance can be arranged against the declared value, covering the sea leg, the lashing, and the door delivery. The policy is issued before sailing so cover is in place for the whole journey. Excess and special perils for oversized cargo are confirmed against the cargo type at booking.

Pre-arranged cover closes the gap between securing the cargo and delivering it.
