BMI and our network of logistics professionals managed the end-to-end export of a 54,000 lb over-dimensional cone crusher from Berwick, PA to Puerto Limón, Costa Rica.

Challenge
Exporting oversized, overweight machinery requires flawless coordination across highway compliance, export prep, cargo securement, and port documentation. The customer needed a single logistics partner to:
Move an over-dimensional / overweight unit legally with DOT permits
Use specialized heavy-haul equipment (RGN trailer) and meet scheduled pickup timing
Prepare the crusher for export with ISPM-15 treated wood skidding
Secure the cargo properly on a flat rack to prevent shifting during ocean transport
Transmit complete export documentation to avoid port delays and vessel cutoff risk
Results

Received and completed Export-compliant handling, including ISPM-15 skidding, pressure washing, permitting, and export documentation
Transloading & Securing equipment to 40’FR per international transport guidelines
Smooth terminal acceptance supported by correctly transmitted export documentation
