/in /by

The video is of a shipment that Thunderbolt Global Logistics arranged from the Port of Portsmouth, VA to Union SC.  It’s a lower bed of an industrial press. The gross weight was 113,000 kgs/249,120# and dimensions 8.20 x 3.95 x 3.96 meters/26’11” x 13’  x 13’ (LxWxH).

We did this for the Project Cargo Division of Sparber Group in Barcelona, Spain.

We used a trucking company called Wolfe House Movers to handle the transport. It took months of planning and was picked up at the Port of Portsmouth, VA on Wednesday Nov. 29th and delivered to Union, SC on Saturday Dec. 2’nd

A special shore crane was hired used to lift on to the truck. Wolfe House Movers was excellent to work with and provided a high level of communication during the journey to Union. It could only move during daylight hours and required police escorts all the way to destination.  The cargo arrived in perfect condition.
