International Factory Relocations
Whether your production line is moving from Wetteren to Warsaw, from Ghent to Gothenburg, or from Brussels to Barcelona: Schoonacker Transport guides you from start to finish. With years of experience in national and international relocation projects, you have come to the right place for a customized total solution.
What is an international factory relocation?
An international factory relocation is more than moving machines from point A to point B. It involves the careful dismantling, packing, transporting, and reinstalling of entire production lines, heavy installations, or industrial equipment across national borders.
That calls for precision. That calls for experience. That calls for Schoonacker.
Every international move brings its own challenges: customs formalities, foreign regulations, long transport routes, and tight deadlines. We know those challenges inside out. And we solve them.
A complete range for every project
Schoonacker Transport has an extensive fleet and equipment specifically tailored for complex relocation projects. Whether it involves a single machine or an entire production line, we have the resources to make it happen.
Our equipment includes, among other things:
-
Various tractor units, (backed) semi-trailers, and low loaders: for heavy and oversized transport over long distances.
-
Trucks with truck-mounted cranes: for flexible loading and unloading operations on location
-
Forklifts up to 12 tons: for precise manipulations in confined spaces
-
Mobile pick-and-carry cranes up to 60 tons: for the heaviest lifting operations
-
Aerial work platforms and specialized equipment: for installations in hard-to-reach places
No project is too big. No route is too far.
