Heavy machinery shipping in Israel
Heavy machinery needs more than a weight on a commercial invoice. The shape of the unit, center of gravity, lifting points, packing and access at each end determine which transport and handling options are realistic. 7 Continents can coordinate the international freight assessment for shipments to or from Israel.
Our Services
Plan the machinery shipment
Give us the handling facts
Share the make and model, dimensions in transport condition, gross weight, photographs from all sides, lifting and lashing points, center-of-gravity information if available, and whether any part can be removed. Add the collection and delivery addresses, crane or forklift availability, and access restrictions.
Choose the transport approach
Depending on the actual unit and route, the team may examine standard container, flat rack, open top, breakbulk, air cargo or a combination of road and sea. Availability, port and airport acceptance and local transport limits must be checked for the exact cargo; no route is assumed in advance.
Separate freight from site work
- Export and import documentation, classification and declared value.
- Specialist packing, lifting, loading and securing responsibilities.
- Terminal handling, road permits if required, unloading and final positioning.
Engineering lift plans, crane operations and installation are specialist services that require an agreed provider and separate confirmation.
Frequently asked questions
Is the stated machine weight enough for a quote?
No. Dimensions, transport configuration, packing and access are equally important.
Can a heavy unit fit in a container?
That depends on dimensions, weight distribution, loading method and equipment limits. We assess the specific unit before selecting equipment.
Are customs charges included?
The freight and customs scope are quoted separately unless explicitly included. Classification and taxes depend on the actual goods and import documents.
