Project & Oversized Cargo Customs Brokers

Project and oversized cargo requires specialist logistics planning for goods that exceed standard container dimensions or weight limits. This includes heavy machinery, industrial plant equipment, wind turbine components, mining equipment, and construction materials for major infrastructure projects. These shipments often require flat rack or open-top containers, breakbulk vessels, or heavy-lift shipping.

In Australia, project cargo frequently involves shipments to remote mining sites, energy projects, or infrastructure developments. Brokers coordinate road permits for oversized loads, crane hire for port-side lifts, and police escort requirements for overweight or wide loads on Australian roads — requirements that vary between states and territories.

Customs brokers handling project cargo manage temporary import provisions for equipment that will leave Australia after the project ends, coordinate staged import declarations when cargo arrives across multiple shipments, and work with carriers who specialise in heavy-lift and out-of-gauge transport. Understanding the full supply chain — from international port to final site — is essential for accurate cost estimation and timeline planning.
