Project Cargo is a term used to broadly describe the national or international transportation of large, heavy, high value or a critical (to the project they are intended for) pieces of equipment. Project Cargo is also commonly referred to as ‘heavy lift’.
These oversized items are transported from one place to another, sometimes across country borders, then lifted or installed into place. A characteristic of heavy lift goods is the absence of standardisation which requires individual transport planning.
