Project Cargo Logistics
End-to-end planning for oversized, heavy, high-value or operationally complex cargo, coordinated across the right combination of air, sea, road, customs and storage.
More than a standard freight booking
One plan for cargo that does not fit the usual pattern
Project cargo is oversized, heavy, high-value or operationally complex equipment that needs more planning and coordination than routine freight.
Jenkar brings the route, carriers, ports, hauliers, customs, handling and delivery stages into one managed movement. The transport plan is shaped around the actual cargo and site constraints, whether the solution uses sea freight, specialist road transport, air freight or several modes together.
Typical movements include industrial machinery, plant and construction equipment, generators, production-line components and other equipment that needs specialist loading, securing or access planning.

What we need to assess project cargo
Accurate information at the start helps Jenkar identify viable modes, handling requirements, route constraints and the questions that need resolving before a quote is finalised.
- Cargo details
- A clear description, quantity, exact dimensions and weight for every item or transport unit.
- Handling information
- Packing method, lifting points, centre-of-gravity information where relevant, and any loading or securing restrictions.
- Origin and destination
- Collection and delivery addresses, site access, operating hours and any known restrictions at either end.
- Timing
- Required collection, delivery or installation dates, plus any programme dependencies or delivery windows.
- Trade and documents
- Countries involved, cargo value, commodity information and any known customs, licence or permit needs.
- Supporting evidence
- Photographs, technical drawings, packing lists or loading plans that help the team understand the movement.
If some details are not available yet, share what you have. Jenkar can identify the missing information needed for the next planning step.
