Everok Group, our exclusive member for China, recently managed to load two Siemens gear boxes onto a vessel at the Port of Zhangjiagang. This took place on June 20, 2024, marking a significant milestone for the company’s project cargo services.
These Siemens gear boxes, originating from Tianjin, weren’t just any ordinary cargo. They were reworked, demanding intricate customs declaration procedures. Handling such complex logistics can be a challenging endeavor on a good day, but Everok’s team faced an additional hurdle—rain. Imagine trying to move massive machinery weighing a total of 76 tons while contending with wet conditions. It’s like trying to solve a giant puzzle in the middle of a downpour.
Despite the weather, the team sprang into action with precision and determination. They had to open the water-proof covers and the tops of the wooden boxes to hoist the gear boxes properly. This task required the combined efforts of their experienced project cargo team, a skilled customs broker, and the port terminal staff.
The process wasn’t just about muscle and machinery. It was a symphony of teamwork and expertise. Everyone involved played a crucial role in ensuring the gear boxes were safely moved into the cargo hold. Picture a well-oiled machine where each part moves in harmony with the others—that’s how smoothly this operation ran.
So, the next time you think about the seamless delivery of goods, remember the behind-the-scenes heroes who make it all possible, rain or shine.
