What does multi-load transport involve?
Multi-load transport involves carrying several objects at the same time on a suitable truck and trailer configuration. The loads are assessed together in advance to determine how they can be positioned, supported and secured. At Van de Wetering, we consider not only the individual objects, but the complete assignment. Based on this assessment, we select the most suitable trailer and loading configuration.
When is multi-load transport possible?
Not every combination of objects can be transported together. The options depend on the total length, width, height and combined weight of the load. The shape of the objects and the available space on the trailer also play an important role.
The loading and unloading locations must also be suitable for the selected vehicle configuration. Van de Wetering checks all these factors in advance to determine whether the objects can be transported together safely and responsibly.
Which loads can be combined?
Different types of objects can be combined as part of one assignment. The most suitable solution is assessed individually for each project. Multi-load transport can be used for:
- boats and yachts;
- masts and separate components;
- transport crates;
- machinery and industrial equipment;
- silos and cable reels;
- other oversized or unusually shaped objects.
Efficient transport in a single shipment
Transporting several objects in one trip reduces the number of separate transport movements required. This simplifies the organisation and limits the number of loading and unloading operations. The equipment also does not need to be deployed several times for the same assignment. As a result, the transport can be organised more practically, while the entire operation remains part of one coordinated schedule.
VExpertise for every loading configuration
Transporting several objects together requires careful attention to stability and weight distribution. Van de Wetering’s drivers have extensive experience with complex loads and non-standard vehicle configurations. They check that every object is properly secured and take the handling characteristics of the complete vehicle into account throughout the journey. A fixed unloading sequence is also followed, ensuring that the remaining load stays stable and secure on the trailer.
Multi-load transport in the Netherlands and abroad
Van de Wetering provides transport services throughout the Netherlands and to destinations across Europe, Turkey, North Africa, the Canary Islands and Asia.
Thanks to our extensive knowledge of international routes, regulations and infrastructure, we can determine the most suitable route for every assignment. This also allows multi-load transport over longer distances to be prepared and carried out with care.
