Out of Gauge (OOG)

providing you with the most cost-effective Out of Gauge (OOG) Cargo solution

what is OUT OF GAUGE CARGO? (OOG)

Commonly known as OOG, Out Of Gauge Cargo is any Cargo that cannot be loaded into a six-sided container. This typically applies to industrial-sized machinery, plant equipment, long metal goods and various building equipment.

Overly large, bulky or difficult to contain shipments require expert solutions with some clever thinking. It’s also beneficial to know the local language and localised customs knowledge.

OPEN TOP CONTAINERS

Our dedicated Transport team is able to manage the transport of heavy, long or tall goods, such as metal frames, building equipment, cranes or rail components using Open Top Containers.

 

FLATBED CONTAINERS

Delivering all types of cargo safely and on schedule, our fully flexible Out Of Gauge Cargo services utilise Flatbed Containers, otherwise known as Platform Containers.

Featuring no sides, ends or roof, Platform Containers or Flatbed Containers are ideal for large goods such as Diggers and Dumpers. Flatbed Containers can also be combined to strengthen the flooring during transportation. Once your container has been loaded, it is then covered with a tarp sheet to protect it from rain and seawater.

 

FLAT RACK CONTAINERS

Saving time during the cargo loading and unloading process, Flat Rack Containers provide flexibility for all your other abnormal sized loads. Flat Rack Containers only have walls at the short end of the container, making them the perfect choice for machinery, building materials or vehicles.
