21 cars with a length gauge Austria – Saint Petersburg

In international cargo transportation, Eurologistics has established itself as an experienced FTL player with more than twenty years of experience. Recently, we successfully implemented another challenging project – the transportation of rails from Austria to St. Petersburg, demonstrating our ability to overcome logistical challenges and bureaucratic obstacles.

Cargo:

• Rail length: 12,5 meter
• Rail weight: 1 tonne
• Quantity: 500 rails
• 
  

The problem:
The client faced a difficult situation: due to sanctions, the rails were restricted, and the June delays at the borders with Poland and Belarus aggravated the situation. Competitors offered transit through Poland, which carried the risk of delays at the border. Due to the rapid monitoring of the situation at the borders and a deep understanding of customs procedures, Eurologistics offered the client an alternative safe route to reduce the likelihood of cargo return and delays at the border to zero.

The decision from Eurologistics:
We have successfully documented the shipment of rails through Turkey to Kazakhstan. Relying on our network of contacts and accumulated experience, we organized delivery and customs clearance, ensuring unhindered import into Russia.

Difficulties and their overcoming:
Transportation was carried out on 21 trucks. The route was from Austria to Turkey, from where the rails were taken by ferry to Novorossiysk, and then to St. Petersburg. The client was afraid that the rails might be damaged on the way, but Eurologistics provided for everything: photo and video fixation was carried out, and loaders under the control of experienced riggers were used for reloading. The cargo arrived undamaged.

Result:
The rails delivered by Eurologistics will be laid on one of the main streets of St. Petersburg, Sadovaya Street. This case confirms the status of Eurologistics as one of the leaders in the international cargo transportation industry.

We can guarantee you favorable rates, as we control the entire process personally. Our team is engaged in the collection, consolidation, loading of cargo, documentation and delivery to Russia. All stages of the work are performed by our employees without intermediaries.
