Switzerland is known for its highly developed industry and thriving service sector.
Efficient freight transport is essential to keep this economy running. Heavy goods transport involves the transportation of oversized or heavy goods that cannot be transported by conventional vehicles.
These include machines, components for large-scale projects, wind turbines and much more.

Heavy transport refers to the professionally organized transport of particularly heavy or large goods that exceed the capacity of conventional means of transport.
Typical objects include industrial plants, turbines, bridge components, or complete machine tracks, whose dimensions and weights require special permits, escort vehicles, and precise logistics.
Planning begins with detailed load distributions, axle load calculations, and the selection of suitable means of transport – often adapted low-loaders or multi-unit special vehicles.
Before transport, a thorough inspection of the route is carried out for bridge loads, clearance heights, road alignment, overhead lines, and structures in order to identify any limitations early on.
Accompanying and barrier measures secure the transport process, while careful lashing and fastening technology guarantees maximum stability. Transport times are based on approved time slots, traffic conditions, and possible road diversions to minimize impacts on regular traffic.
Furthermore, congestion points, speed limits, and ramp layouts are monitored during the journey to safely manage load changes and inclines.
Upon arrival, professional final assembly and installation takes place, taking into account legal regulations and safety requirements.
Overall, heavy transport enables the cost-effective progress of industrial projects, while precise planning, permits, and qualified personnel ensure the highest levels of safety and reliability.
