At Kenneth Clark Co., no shipment is too large, too heavy, or too complex for our team. For this month’s featured shipment we wanted to showcase one of our standout projects, which involved the transportation of an oversized industrial heat exchanger—and it truly shows the expertise, coordination, and care our team brings to every job.
This particular heat exchanger was an engineering marvel: extremely heavy, oversized, and highly sensitive. Used for regulating temperatures in large-scale industrial processes, the unit required careful handling to protect its intricate internal structure. The exchanger’s perforated front and robust, corrugated sides emphasized the importance of balance and precision during transport.
Due to the sheer size and delicacy of the load, our team faced several challenges:
-
Specialized Rigging: Working with an expert crane operator, we used precision rigging to lift the exchanger safely onto a lowboy trailer.
-
Custom Securing: Specialized straps and securements ensured the exchanger stayed stable throughout the journey, avoiding even the slightest shift.
-
Permits and Planning: Because of its dimensions, the shipment required oversize load permits and a carefully planned route to navigate clearances and weight restrictions.
-
On-Site Coordination: Our logistics team coordinated closely with both the shipping and receiving facilities to minimize downtime and maximize safety.
Thanks to detailed planning, hands-on expertise, and seamless teamwork, the heat exchanger was delivered on time and without incident. The receiving team was impressed with how smoothly the operation went, from crane lift to final placement.
At Kenneth Clark Co., we don’t just move freight—we move our customers’ businesses forward. Whether it’s a critical piece of infrastructure like this heat exchanger or routine freight, our commitment remains the same: reliable, expert service you can count on.
