The vehicle that will deliver the load and the vehicle that will take over the load be placed in appropriate positions within the field, availability of equipment and timing of operations It is important to do it right.
Technical information, especially for heavy and out-of-gauge loads sharing in advance that the transfer method is correct contributes to the determination.
Elements Considered in Planning
- Type and physical structure of the load
- Total size and weight
- Number of pallets, boxes and pieces
- Sensitivity status of the load
- Available transport vehicle
- New vehicle type to be used
- Lifting and transfer method
- Final delivery route
