Specialized cargo breaks normal forwarding because the inland leg needs equipment that is rarely available on demand: flat racks, permitted overweight configurations, gensets, live-bottom trailers, multi-axle chassis. Sourcing it after the booking adds a margin and a day at every step.
Amar holds that equipment. Quotations that would otherwise wait on subcontractor inquiries are completed internally, because the equipment, the permits and the team dispatching them sit in the same organisation as the person who took your call.
Flat rack and open top booking, with route engineering for the inland move rather than a rate that ignores it.
Permitted triaxle and four-axle configurations on approved routes, matched to the load before the rate is confirmed.
Genset fleet with temperature monitoring every four to six hours, vessel to door, under one custodian.
TDG and IMDG certified for surface movements, with documentation and handling on the same file as the rest of the shipment.
Plant relocations, industrial equipment and heavy-lift movements planned end to end, with inland routing engineered alongside the ocean leg.
Roll-on/roll-off and lift-on/lift-off handling for wheeled and craneable cargo that will not travel in a box.
Liquid cargo in tank containers, with equipment, cleaning and documentation coordinated as one movement.
Out-of-gauge freight is often quoted by relaying a subcontractor’s number, which adds time to the quote and leaves it conditional on that subcontractor’s availability when you accept.
Amar quotes from its own fleet on the same one-business-day standard as every other service. If the equipment is committed, we tell you at quote stage rather than at booking stage.
Length, width, height, gross weight and any lifting constraints. Feasibility confirmed against our own equipment list.
Corridor, permits and restrictions checked before the rate is confirmed, not discovered after the booking.
Ocean or surface booking with documentation and customs entry handled on the same file by our own desk.
On permitted, owned equipment, with the dispatch team and the equipment in the same organisation.
Permits and routing drive the lead time rather than equipment availability, since the equipment is ours. Send the dimensions and we’ll tell you what the corridor requires at quote stage.
Yes. Amar holds TDG and IMDG certification for surface movements and IATA DG certification for air, so dangerous goods stay on the same file as the rest of the shipment.
Yes. Flat racks, multi-axle chassis and permitted configurations are in our own fleet, which is why an out-of-gauge quote runs to the same one-business-day standard as a standard FCL quotation.
Yes. Project and heavy-lift cargo, industrial equipment and plant relocations are planned as a single movement, with the specialized equipment and permitting handled internally. Send the scope and we will engineer the routing before quoting.
Send us a lane, a commodity and a volume. A pricing analyst responds within one business day with pricing broken out by leg — ocean, customs, rail, drayage and storage — so you can see what each stage costs.
