At TLS we understand that your heavy lift / project cargo is unique and is thus, resistant to typical standardized transportation / logistic layout. With 18+ years of experience in the heavy-lift and transportation domain, we shoulder every individual project as a unique and isolated case for which, we specifically engineer out of the box solutions so that your Project Cargo reaches the Right Destination at the Right Time and in Perfect Condition.
Our Services
Project Cargo solutions at TLS is wide, all-encompassing and backed with highly sophisticated infrastructure, equipment and professional skills.
Our core services include:
Our Fleet And Equipment:
At TLS, we understand that technical superiority of equipment systems is the key to the advancement of indomitable project cargo solutions. We therefore endeavor to house the best equipment and fleet that are updated and maintained to support failsafe heavy lift / project cargo transport completion.
A Glimpse into Our Fleet and Equipment :
- Low beds of various kinds, capacities and axles
- Rear ramp loading with capacity of 60 tons
- Front low deck loading with capacity of 100 tons
- Extendable low bed of up to 35 meters
- Hydraulic low bed with capacity of 100 tons
- Air suspension low bed (turning axle) with capacity of 100 tons
- Long trailer of up to 35 meters with various capacity
- Semi long trailer – 18m to 28m
- 24 axles goldhofer 300-ton capacity
- 16 axles Nicholas type modular trailer – 200-tons capacity
- 130-ton capacity drop deck with height of 450mm
- 13.5m and 15m curtain side trailer
- 3/7/10 tons closed pickups with or without tail-lifts
We are always prepped for contingencies :
Safety of your high value cargo is of paramount importance to us. We therefore run mandatory checks and assessments and take every little detail into consideration including:
- Weather changes along the route and determining compatibility with project cargo transportation
- Align standby vehicles and maintenance professionals in case unforeseen emergencies arise
- Infrastructure examination and surveillance
- Force majeure emergency plans
- Reinforcements in case of possible risks associated with transportation of loose bundles
Transport Planning – Complexity of the dimensions of project cargo requires meticulous planning of transport. The planning procedure involves:
- Careful assessment of the cargo
- Determine fleet / trucks that are compatible with its dimensions and weight
- Decide upon the heavy lift machines and equipment, jacking and skidding (when required) to load / reload the containers / trucks
- Packing and weatherproofing to protect high value consignments from possible transport impacts and weather uncertainties
- Comprehensive route survey to establish the safest route for the project cargo to reach its destination is least possible time
- Route planning to identify difficult road curvatures, overhead clearances, trees and other factors that may cause obstructions
Highway Engineering – When we speak of project cargo, we are speaking of atypical cargo that can weigh anywhere from 100 tons to 500 tons or more with length / width of about 100 meters or more. The sheer stupendousness of these measurements prohibits the movement of heavy lifts / project cargo on regular highways which are generally not strong enough to support the weight.
Proper highway engineering is thus required to ensure that the roads in the transportation route can bear the weight of the cargo without causing any unnecessary damages. Our Highway Engineering solution encompasses:
- Careful checking of highway construction materials
- Backfill with soil (wherever necessary) to help the road bear the weight of the cargo Ensure compliance with road safety standards
- Proposals for prioritized requirements including solutions, schedules, tasks, deliverables and cost
Our highway engineering practices helps eliminate possible risk factors successfully, to expedite your project cargo transportation.
Traffic Engineering – Heavy lift project cargo transportation is best on roads with least traffic saturation and lowest associated risk factors. Our team therefore, conducts thorough research on:
- accident studies and conflicts,
- capacity estimation of unsignalized junctures / signalized crossings/ two lane roads / roundabouts
- traffic flow and saturation along the route and
- planning for possible uncertainties
Comprehensive Project Management and Impeccable Project Completion:
At TLS we carry out immaculate teamwork through the A to Z of your project journey. Every critical stage of your heavy lift project cargo transportation is monitored closely by trained experts in the field to ensure 100% faultlessness.
Seamless alignment with our project partners leaves absolutely no gaps for errors or miscommunications. Topped with 100% transparent and competitive pricing, we have earned our reputation as one of the best heavy lift / project cargo transporters in the middle east.
