Arriving and getting in are two different things
Carrying a load to the site and putting it down inside the fence, in the right place, are separate jobs. We settle the second one first and plan the first around it.
The receiving conditions decide the route
Every site has hours when it will take a delivery and a position where it will be unloaded. Some restrict vehicle size on the approach. Those conditions set the route and the vehicle, not the other way round.
- Confirm receiving hours and days
- Confirm the unloading position and the equipment available there
- Confirm vehicle restrictions on the approach to the gate
Heavy and oversized loads
Past a certain size or weight a load stops being ordinary freight. Route survey and permits come into it, and the answer changes with the stretch of road involved.
- Confirm measured dimensions and weight
- Survey the route where the load requires it
- Arrange lifting equipment at the unloading point
Inbound cargo moves with customs
Nothing moves until clearance is done, and the site receiving date sits behind that. Scheduling the two separately is how storage charges start.
- Tie the clearance date to the site receiving date
- Handle bonded storage and movement where it is needed
- Check that the shipping documents and the owner documents agree
The slot is not usually ours to pick
A receiving window at a live plant is shared with everyone else working there — turnaround crews, civil contractors, other suppliers. The earlier a delivery goes onto that calendar, the more of the day is still open; a late request takes what is left, which tends to be the least convenient hour and the smallest crane. Give us the origin, the dimensions and weight, and the date you want it on site, and we will work backwards from the window.
