Tailoring solutions around your unique requirements to deliver your cargo for all types of oversized shipments.
When it comes to moving large pieces or amounts of cargo from one side of the country to the other, or across oceans, project cargo is the most efficient way to do so. But sometimes a piece of cargo is too big for an airplane (or too expensive!), too big for an ISO intermodal container, or just not suitable for shipping by either of these methods for some other reason such as the final door destination location. In such circumstances, breakbulk shipping is also preffered for cargo shipment.
Project Cargo is either combination of breakbulk, air freight, a RoRo (roll-off/roll-on) vessel, or a flat rack container also called as OOG cargo shipping or the process of putting together a breakbulk shipment from A-Z. MOS can help you ship heavy and oversized cargo more seamlessly and effectively.

To avoid encountering such issues, MOS provides tailoring solutions and handles your cargo efficiently when shipping heavy and oversized cargo.
