How Much Does Machinery Transport Cost?

We have optimised our network to allow us to offer fast delivery at competitive prices. When calculating the cost of haulage, we take a number of factors into account including:
  • The type and size of the machinery
  • Number of machines to be transported 
  • The distance to the delivery destination
  • Any specific health & safety measures that have to be put in place
  • Whether the machine needs to be taken apart for transportation 


All you have to do to get an estimate of how much your specific order would cost is to fill in the form below and tell our team a bit more about your machinery and your requirements.

How to Prepare Heavy Machinery for Transport?

There are a few things you should consider before handing your machinery over to our team:

  • Inventory: It’s important to keep a detailed inventory, including the make and model of the machine. If the machine will be transported in parts, make sure that every part of the machine is listed separately in the inventory to avoid any mistakes.
  • Cleanliness: The machinery or equipment you are sending must be thoroughly cleaned before it’s ready for delivery. This is to avoid damage to both your machinery and to other items in the same shipment.
  • Health & Safety: If there are any health and safety concerns involved, such as hazardous materials that have to be transported with the machine, you must let us know in advance to ensure the safety of our staff and your shipment.
  • Photo Proof: Always take detailed pictures of every item you send. This way, you can verify that the machinery has arrived safely and in the same condition as when it was sent.
