Heavy Lift Shipping

The requirements of heavy lift shipping are many and varied. Safety is a primary consideration, as is the protection of your cargo, so you'll want to select a heavy lift shipping company that has an excellent service record and the experience needed to meet any challenge. ATS International Services, Inc. is such a company, with decades of experience and award-winning service.

In both Europe and the United States, barge shipping is often a very cost-effective way to transport heavy or oversized cargo. A typical barge measures about 195 feet by 35 feet and can carry up to 1,500 tons of cargo. It is primarily used along the coasts, on rivers and canals, powered by tugboats or towboats. As an NVOCC, we have the flexibility to select barge shipping or another mode of transport for your goods, without being limited by our own fleet of vessels.

Charter Services for Heavy Lift Shipping

If you have a heavy lift or break bulk shipping project that can't be transported on a conventional liner vessel, or that needs to go somewhere off the liners' usual routes, we can arrange a charter or partial charter for you. We'll take care of all the paperwork and documentation for you, making your break bulk shipping project easy and seamless.
