Project Forwarding
Specialized Logistics for Oversized & Complex Cargo
Project forwarding at Dhanraj & Sons delivers specialised logistics for oversized, heavy-lift and time-critical cargo associated with infrastructure, energy, cement, steel, oil & gas and construction projects. Our dedicated project cell plans and executes every phase — feasibility studies, method statements, route surveys, permit management, heavy-lift rigging, multi-modal movement and customs clearance for project cargo under EPCG and Advance Authorisation schemes.
We handle Out of Gauge (OOG) cargo, break-bulk consignments, flat-rack and open-top containers, and specialised equipment including turbines, transformers, boilers, generators, pressure vessels, prefabricated structures, mining equipment and plant machinery. Our network extends to all major Indian ports with heavy-lift capability — JNPT and Mumbai — plus riverine and coastal movement where road access is impractical.
Every project forwarding engagement is underwritten by route engineers, regulatory liaison with RTO/NHAI/police authorities, specialised crews for jacking and skidding, marine surveyors, and tailored cargo insurance. From a single critical import to EPC-scale export campaigns, we deliver on-time, on-spec and on-budget across India.
