Out-of-gauge Cargo (OOG) is any shipment that surpasses the maximum dimensions of a standard container in length, width, or height. Instead, this freight can be securely transported with special types of trucks, trailers, aircraft, flat-racks, platforms, or open-top containers. Ask us about the following alternatives for shipping OOG:
• Flat-rack and Open-Top Containers: When going by sea, oversized or irregular freight can be loaded onto flat-rack or open-top containers specialized in OOG. These are open at the top or sides, so the cargo can be lifted in, then covered for protection.
• Flat Bed, Winch Truck, Hiab Truck, and Heavy-Haul Trucking: ACS’s extensive network in trucking facilitates heavy-haul ground transport to all areas of world
• Cargo Planes and Charter Flights: When it needs to go by air, large and irregular-shaped machinery are a snap with ACS’s extensive resources. Our network sources large or specialized cargo planes to do the job. When a charter flight is needed, ACS will arrange the right plane to fit your heavy-weight cargo and your timelines.

Shipping in containers is still the most economical alternative for freight forwarding by sea. What to do when the material does not fit into standard containers? Sometimes it’s even too hefty to be carrying a heavy load on a single flat-rack or platform. The solution is breakbulk cargo shipping.
Breakbulk cargo transportation entails dismantling large units into smaller –more manageable-- ones, to be fit into drums, boxes, barrels, pallets, or loaded across several flat-racks. It had been the most popular method of ocean cargo transport before the dawn of large container ships. Although it involves more labour than Full Container Load and Less than Container Load shipping, it usually remains the best choice when the items are too big, heavy, or irregularly-shaped to fit inside standard containers. Also in the case where the goods are going to a lesser-developed port that can’t take large container ships.

Breakbulk cargo shipping is still commonly used more frequently than you might think, particularly in extensive projects or fields that need to move bulky merchandise. These include large construction, oil and gas, energy, marine, and mining, among other industries. Merchandise typically transported using breakbulk might be lumber, raw metals, paper pulp, heavy load machinery, power-generating and refinery equipment. Among the advantages of this heavy weight shipping method:
• Permits heavy industry and power-generation companies to displace enormous equipment.
• Permits goods to enter lesser-developed ports.
• Keep goods separate (and organized) when they are best used that way at destination.
