Well, it’s oversized, so what?

The fact is that oversized items can only be transported with special permission. If at a traffic police or weight control post you are caught with oversized items without permission, you will face sanctions in accordance with Article 12.21.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. And every year the situation on the roads becomes more and more difficult. It becomes much more profitable to plan the transportation in advance, explain to the cargo owner the importance of obtaining permission, postpone loading until permission is received, and drive calmly.

Legislation of the Russian Federation on oversized shipments

Fines for the transportation of oversized and heavy cargo, Code of the Russian Federation on Administrative Offenses (Administrative Offenses Code of the Russian Federation) dated December 30, 2001 N 195-FZ.

(Part 5 introduced by Federal Law dated November 6, 2011 N 296-FZ)

A set of documents for obtaining a special permit

In order for you to complete the documents correctly and completely, we need to have the following information about your transportation:

• In the “All Russia” package we prepare permits for the routes Perm-Khanty-Mansiysk, Perm-Nadym, Perm-Blagoveshchensk, Perm-St. Petersburg (via Kirov and Vologda), Perm-St. Petersburg (via Samara and Moscow), Perm -Novorossiysk, Perm-Orenburg.
• If you need other cities, then you need to provide a complete and accurate transportation route, with loading and unloading addresses (city, street, house);
• wheel formula of the hitch (truck) and center distances;
• loading height of the semi-trailer platform.
• copies of documents for the tractor and semi-trailer (registration certificates on both sides or PTS on both sides)
• lease agreement(s) for equipment not owned by the applicant;
• card of your company (LLC, individual entrepreneur, closed joint stock company) indicating bank details.

Maximum possible number of trips

We issue a permit for a maximum number of 10 trips, in accordance with clause 4 of the Procedure for issuing special permits (Order 258 of the Ministry of Transport).

Maximum permit period

An interregional permit can be issued for a total period of UP TO three months. Managers are very literal with this “do”. The permit is issued, for example, from January 1 to March 31 (and not April 1); from June 14 to September 13 (not until September 14).

Number of points on the route

Usually, two points of the route are indicated in the inter-regional permit: the point of departure and the point of destination. But the loyal employees of the Managers allow our company to make their proposals for laying the route of transportation and make a route with a “check-in”. Therefore, we indicate all intermediate cities for our customers in the permit.

Order No. 7: safety of oversized transportation

Entering into force on July 1, 2014, Order No. 7 of the Ministry of Transport dated January 15, 2014 regulates certain standards designed to ensure transportation safety oversized cargo. It says:

• about divisible loads;
• about organizing support for oversized cargo: what parameters are required for support and how it should be equipped;
• conditions under which a traffic management project is required and requirements for the design of such a project.

Resolution No. 934 + No. 12: compensation for harm

Until the end of 2014, the carrier pays for damage caused to roads by heavy cargo, on the basis of Government Decree No. 934 of November 16, 2009. And from January 1, 2015, Government Decree No. 12 of January 9, 2014 will come into force, which greatly increases the amount of damage levied for the transport of heavy goods.

The rules for compensation for damages provide general formula calculation of damage, as well as tables of rates for damage by total weight and axial loads, for each federal district of the Russian Federation.

Resolution No. 125: procedure for weight and dimensional control

This document explains who can impose road restrictions, when and for how long; and also to whom these restrictions do not apply.

Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation: fines for violating the rules for transporting oversized goods

“Violation of the rules for the transportation of large and heavy cargo” regulates the form and degree of responsibility for violating the rules for the transportation of oversized cargo.

It describes the amount of fines for non-compliance with the rules and who they are charged to.

Federal law on international transportation of oversized goods

International transportation of oversized goods is regulated by Federal Law No. 127-FZ. It states that:

• when crossing the border without a special permit, the car will be detained;
• You cannot carry out interregional transportation using a foreign vehicle.

Order No. 258: procedure for issuing permits

The main document that regulates the procedure for issuing a special permit for oversized cargo is the Procedure for issuing a special permit for traffic on roads vehicle, carrying out the transportation of heavy and (or) bulky goods, or as it is briefly called by the people, "Order 258". It governs:

• what a special permit should look like,
• what information should it contain;
• the procedure for applying for a special permit - where to apply, what information to indicate and what attachments to make to the application;
• conditions for accepting applications and refusing them;
• procedure for consideration and approval of the application;
• features of coordination of very heavy loads;
• deadlines for obtaining a permit;
• procedure for issuing or refusing to issue a completed permit.

Order No. 107: regulations for government agencies for issuing permits

Order 258 determines the procedure for obtaining permits “on the part of the carrier.” But there is a document for the “other side of the window” - administrative regulations for the provision public services on the issuance of permits, approved by Order of the Ministry of Transport No. 107 of January 15, 2013. It prescribes the procedure for the actions of the government agency issuing permits. It states:

• an exhaustive list of documents required from the carrier;
• list of grounds for refusal to provide services;
• amount of state duty;
• registration and registration deadlines;
• requirements for the premises in which the service is provided;
• procedures for filing and considering complaints regarding the service;

In order to efficiently organize the transportation of cargo, it is necessary to always (!) carefully measure its dimensions and weight. Moreover, if the cargo must “travel” packaged, then it is necessary to weigh and take measurements both before it is packaged and when it is already in the container.

Precise definition the weight and dimensions of the cargo in any case influence the correct choice of car: why incur additional difficulties and costs of fines by “stuffing”, for example, a product weighing 8 tons into a car designed for six tons, or a load 3.5 meters long - to a standard Gazelle (2.8 m), if there are vehicles with greater cargo capacity, extended versions of the Gazelle, etc. and so on.?

However, at the same time, it is often necessary to transport cargo that, due to its dimensions, cannot fit into any of the existing vehicles or whose weight exceeds the permissible load on the road surface. Moreover, there is no way to separate these cargoes or disassemble them in order to transport them in batches.

For example: generators, transformers, long pipes, agricultural and road equipment, presses, drilling rigs, tanks for petroleum products, etc.

In this case, we will be talking about large-sized and (or) heavy cargo, and their transportation will require special preparation: obtaining permission, coordinating the route, tolls on roads, developing a special transportation project, organizing escort... And if any of the necessary points are not fulfilled, the carrier will face a small fine.

Therefore, it is very important to know all the subtleties and nuances of transporting oversized cargo and strictly follow the prescribed conditions.

However, first you need to know when exactly the cargo begins to be considered oversized.

So, the cargo is oversized if its dimensions exceed the established maximum permissible values ​​for at least one of the parameters:

height (with the car): 4 meters;
in width: for all vehicles - 2.55 meters, for isothermal bodies - 2.6 meters;
length: for trailers and single vehicles - 12 meters, for a road train - 20 meters; at the same time, not only the length of the load is important, but also how much it exceeds the length of the vehicle: the overhang of the load is allowed no more than 2 (!) meters.

As for the heavy load, it will be such if it exceeds either the established mass limits (by the way, in this case the combined mass of the load and the vehicle is calculated!), Or permissible axle loads.

Permissible weights Vehicle

Permissible axle loads of vehicles

(The values ​​in parentheses are for dual-slope wheels, without brackets - for single-slope wheels.)

If the cargo parameters “failed” according to at least one given value (length, width, height, weight), then, we repeat, it is large-sized and (or) heavy, which means that it is necessary to receive special permission.

Who issues permission to transport oversized cargo across the territory of the Russian Federation?

In fact, it all depends on which route the cargo will take.

• If the path (or part of the path) runs along federal highways or through the territory of two or more constituent entities of the Russian Federation, then you should apply for permission to Federal Road Agency (Rosavtodor).
• If along highways of regional or intermunicipal importance (or across the territory of two or more municipalities, which is important - within the boundaries of the subject), without affecting federal highways, - to the executive authority of the subject of the Russian Federation.
• If along local roads of a municipal district (or along the territory of two or more settlements within the boundaries of a municipal district) - to the local government body of the municipal district.
• If along local highways of a settlement, provided that the route of the vehicle passes within the boundaries of such a settlement, - to the local government body of the settlement.
• If on local roads of the urban district - to the local government body of the urban district.
• If on a private road - to the owner of the road.

However, regardless of which authority you should apply for permission, the package necessary documents will be the same. It includes:

• application (indicating the route of travel, type of transportation, timing of its implementation, number of trips; characteristics of the cargo - dimensions, weight, divisibility; information about the vehicle - registration plate, make and model, weight, distance between axles, dimensions; data on organizational legal form of the carrier);
• copies of documents for the vehicle (passport or registration certificate);
• diagram of the vehicle showing the number of axles and wheels and their relative position, indicating the distribution of load along the axes, securing the load;
• information about technical requirements for transportation of the declared cargo in transport position.

Basically, once the application is submitted, all the carrier can do is wait. Rosavtodor (or another authorized body) establishes which other sections of roads (except those under its direct control) the route of the vehicle passes (for example, along roads of regional, municipal, etc. significance), determines their owners and directs to them an application for approval of the route. When a response is received from each department and if the response is positive, the applicant is issued an invoice for compensation for the harm caused. Once the invoice is paid and proof of payment (copies of payment documents) is provided, the carrier is issued a special permit and can begin the transportation process. In this case, by the way, the maximum period from the date of filing the application to receiving the permit is 11 working days.

In this case, the permit can be either one-time or multiple-use - for several (no more than 10) trips of the same type: along a specific route with similar cargo.

However, often coordinating the route for transporting oversized and/or heavy cargo requires more time and includes more steps.

What is a special transportation project and in what cases is it developed?

If the cargo being transported along with the vehicle is higher than 4.5 meters, then in order to deliver it to its destination, it is necessary to develop a special route along which the vehicle will not have to pass through tunnels, railroad crossings, under bridges, etc. Moreover, in cases where, for example, you avoid driving under power grids, transmission lines, etc. If it doesn’t work, you will have to use special equipment during the transportation of cargo to lift them or build various detours.

In the same way, you will have to develop a special project, a traffic schedule, organize a special route and take increased transportation safety measures if the width of the cargo exceeds 5 meters and the length exceeds 35 meters.

When the cargo, together with the vehicle carrying it, weighs more than 44 tons, then, in addition to coordinating the route, it will also be necessary to assess the technical condition of the roads (will they be able to withstand the expected load?) or even strengthen the road surfaces.

In all these cases, it is necessary to approve the route, travel options for the vehicle and measures to ensure its movement with those who own certain infrastructure facilities (for example, power lines), as well as with the traffic police. What greatly simplifies the procedure is that all steps for approval, project development, etc. undertaken by the authorized body responsible for issuing the permit. True, the time frame for issuing a permit naturally extends, but for everything additional work There is a separate fee for organizing the route.

In addition, it will be necessary to coordinate the route with the owner of the railway infrastructure in cases where the transported cargo is higher than 4.5 meters, when the length of the vehicle with trailer is more than 22 meters (or the road train has two or more trailers) or when the vehicle is moving at a speed of less than 8 km /h.

Is it always necessary to obtain a permit to transport heavy cargo?

No not always. A permit is not required if the weight of the load with the vehicle or the axle load is only by 2 percent (or less) exceeds permissible values. If the excess is more than 2 percent but less than 10, then the permit is issued in a simplified manner.

By the way, what is important to know: you cannot transport large-sized and/or heavy divisible cargo! If the cargo can be disassembled easily and without damage, then it should be transported in this disassembled form. There is only one exception: if the vehicle weight, axle load, width, length or height parameters exceed the maximum permissible values less than 2 percent, then a vehicle carrying such cargo can still travel on roads. But you still need to get special permission first!

In addition, when organizing the transportation of large and/or heavy cargo, you must take into account that in some cases this cargo will require a special accompaniment.

This need is easy to explain: if, for example, a loaded vehicle moves out of its lane, someone must warn the oncoming traffic in advance about the possible danger. Or stop the movement while the road train is turning with a big skid. Or pre-measure the height at which power lines, etc. are located to determine whether a vehicle with a high load can pass under them or not.

There are several options for accompanying oversized and/or heavy cargo:

• cover car;
• escort vehicle.

A cover vehicle, as a rule, is provided by the shipper or carrier or hired from outside. It is necessary throughout the journey in cases where:

• height of a vehicle with a load of more than 4.5 meters;
• the width of the load exceeds 3.5 meters;
• the length of the load exceeds 25 meters.

In this case, there may be more than one cover vehicle and it can follow both in front of the vehicle and behind it. It all depends on what kind of cargo is being accompanied. If it is tall, then, naturally, it is necessary to precede it (in order to measure the height of power lines, bridge structures, etc.), if it is long, then the cover vehicle must be behind (and in the literal sense - to cover the cars behind from dangerous long), if wide - in front: warn of a possible threat.

In what cases is it necessary to use a cover vehicle and how many such vehicles should there be, you can find out from the table “Mandatory conditions for the use of cover vehicles” in Appendix No. 1 to the Rules for Ensuring the Safety of Transportation of Passengers and Cargoes by car and urban ground electric transport.

In addition, cover cars are needed in a special way designate:

• yellow-orange stripes of reflective material;
• two yellow or orange flashing lights (they are mounted on the roof of the car);
• light or reflective information board with the inscriptions “Large length” and (or) “Large width”.

However, in addition to a cover vehicle, oversized cargo may also require an escort vehicle. The escort car is a traffic police patrol car. It is used when the vehicle’s route passes along a busy section of the road with heavy traffic, when it at least partially occupies the oncoming lane (the width of the dimensions exceeds 4 meters), when the length of the road train is more than 30 meters and in other cases requiring auxiliary traffic control.

What other safety measures should the vehicle obey?

First, it must also be specially designated:

• sign " Oversized cargo» : if the load protrudes beyond the dimensions of the vehicle by more than 1 meter along the length and 0.4 meters at the edges;

Thirdly, the vehicle prohibited:

• deviate from the established route;
• drive during ice, snowfall, and when visibility is less than 100 meters;
• drive along the side of the road;
• stop outside specially designated parking areas;
• continue transportation if any technical malfunction threatening traffic safety, as well as when the load is displaced or its fastening is weakened.

If there is a need to change the established route, then all changes, again, must be agreed upon and appropriate permission must be issued for them. Otherwise, the carrier faces a large fine. In addition, penalties are applied in cases where additional measurements and weighing (and weight and dimensional control can be carried out along the route of the vehicle) show that the actual values ​​of the mass, axle load and (or) dimensions of the vehicle are greater than those indicated in the accompanying document .

So, what must be taken into account when organizing the transportation of large and/or heavy cargo?

Naturally, first and foremost - the dimensions and weight of the cargo. Moreover, it is necessary to measure the weight, length, width and height in any case, even if logic, together with the eye, are sure that the given load does not belong to “large dimensions” or “heavy weights”.

Accurate determination of cargo parameters (which is important - and in packaged form too!) is necessary for the right choice machine and for the correct placement of cargo in it.

Moreover, for freight vehicles weighing more than 12 tons, a toll is provided for traveling on federal roads (the “Platon” system), and the absence of this toll will result in a fine.

Exceeding the permissible dimensions requires obtaining permission, coordinating the route, and also, possibly, developing a special transportation project. The conditions under which this permit will be issued depend on the specified weight and dimensions of the cargo. The cost of transportation also depends on them: the greater the excess of permissible values, the higher the road toll.

And although it seems that you can cheat and slightly underestimate the weight and parameters of the cargo (in order to pay less or avoid the expensive development of a special project), it is unlikely that you will be able to save money: weight and dimensional control along the vehicle’s route will certainly reveal violations and you will have to pay even more.

In addition, we should not forget that these difficulties in organizing the transportation of large-sized and (or) heavy cargo are provided for a reason: such cargo, firstly, poses a danger to other road users, and secondly, it damages the road surface and poses a threat for road and other infrastructure.

The transportation of goods on the territory of the Russian Federation is regulated by Chapter No. 23 of the Traffic Rules. Transportation of oversized objects is additionally regulated by a number of federal laws and orders. Let's consider how oversized cargo should be transported, traffic rules and requirements for the vehicle.

Regulatory documents

As you can see, only a small fraction of the aspects of transporting oversized goods are covered by the Road Traffic Regulations. Basic regulation of the transportation of oversized cargo on the roads of the Russian Federation is carried out by Federal Law No. 257-FZ. In Chapter 5 of Article 31 you can find the following points:

• transportation of large and heavy cargo requires special permission;
• the procedure for obtaining a special permit is established by the government of the Russian Federation;
• Before transportation, it is necessary to coordinate the route with the owner of the roads;
• In case of damage, the amount of compensation is calculated by the owner of the road.

Based on the rights specified in the above normative act, “Rules for the transportation of goods by road” were drawn up. In this document you can find instructions regarding the procedure for organizing transportation, ensuring the safety of vehicles and containers, if necessary, conditions of transportation and provision of vehicles for transportation.

Related orders and regulations

In order to be guaranteed to protect yourself from problems when filling out an application for a special permit and directly when transporting oversized cargo, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the following orders:

• No. 107: represents regulations for government agencies for issuing permits;
• No. 258: regulates the rules for issuing permits;
• No. 7: establishes rules to ensure safety when transporting oversized items.

Resolutions:

• No. 125: procedure for weight and dimensional control;
• No. 934 + No. 12: procedure for compensation for damage caused to the road;
• No. 125: rules for passing weight control;
• No. 211: establishes the rules for introducing a ban on cargo transportation.

Fines and punishments

To familiarize yourself with the amount of penalties imposed for violations of the rules for the transportation of oversized cargo, read Article 12.21.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. There you will find out exactly who should be punished for violations. For example, for not having a special permit, a driver can receive a fine of 2 thousand rubles, but, even worse, he can lose his driver’s license for up to six months.

What kind of cargo is considered oversized?

The cargo is considered oversized if its weight and/or size exceeds the value established by the traffic regulations of a particular country as acceptable during transportation. According to traffic rules Russian Federation, oversized cargo is considered to be cargo that:

Traffic regulations on transportation

Paragraph 23.5 of the traffic rules states that vehicles transporting such cargo must be marked with the “Large cargo” sign. Additionally, in the dark (remember that this is considered the time from evening twilight to the beginning of twilight in the morning) and in conditions of poor visibility, a reflective element or a white light should be installed in the bow of the car, and a reflective element or a light source of sufficient power in the rear part Red. This is quite enough for driving on public roads.

Special Requirements

Transportation of explosive, chemical or other dangerous goods, long objects or heavy cargo is regulated by special standards established by the relevant government agencies. Special rules should be followed when driving a vehicle (with or without cargo) if:

Heavyweights

Also, special permission from the traffic police is required when transporting heavy cargo. What matters is the total weight of the vehicle and the object being transported. Specific values may differ in different countries, which should definitely be taken into account when intending to cross the border. The definition of “heavy” in the Russian Federation includes:

Also, do not forget about the strict requirements for load distribution along the axles. Not only the distance between closely spaced axes matters, but also regulatory loads highways. When designing, constructing and reconstructing a roadway, the permissible axial load is set, for example, 6, 10 or 11.5 tons. That is why transportation can take place not along the shortest route, but with a choice of roads with a suitable load class.

Signs

Sign used to indicate oversized cargo:

Long road train sign
Long vehicle.

When transporting dangerous goods, the vehicle must be marked with the following sign:

Cover car

Previously, if the length of a vehicle loaded with oversized cargo was more than 24 m, but less than 30 m, and the width was more than 3.5 m, but less than 4 m, then proper conditions for transportation could be created transport company without the participation of traffic police representatives. But since 2014, when transporting heavy and oversized cargo, it is necessary to use a cover vehicle to ensure safety. Requirements for an accompanying car:

• the presence of a yellow-orange stripe;
• presence of yellow and yellow flashing lights orange color;
• A reflective or illuminated sign must be installed, on which there will be an inscription warning about the characteristics of the cargo (for example, “Large length”).

Travel abroad and interregional transportation

If you intend to cross the border, please note that a car without a special international permit will be detained.

When passing a route through two or more territorial units of the upper level of the Russian Federation, an interregional permit must be obtained. As in the case of an international special permit, you can apply for it through the State Services website. You can fill out an application during a personal visit at the offices of the Road Management Administration of the Russian Federation or at its subsidiary branches.

How to get permission

Obtaining permission to transport oversized cargo is regulated by the so-called Order 258. It is in this document that you can find out:

• admission parameters and conditions for refusal to submit an application;
• a complete description of the procedure for drawing up and submitting an application;
• what the document should look like and what information should be included in it;
• subtleties when coordinating the transportation of heavy objects;
• established deadlines for obtaining permission;
• procedure for issuing a special permit or obtaining a refusal.

Carriage ban

Let's look at the cases in which transportation of oversized items is prohibited:

• the load interferes with driving;
• with a load the car becomes unstable. To prevent a truck from tipping over, it is imperative to take into account seasonal characteristics and the risk of exposure to heavy winds;
• due to the size of the object, the driver’s visibility is limited, as a result of which he cannot adequately assess the road situation;
• the cargo closes lighting, reflectors, identification marks, state license plate;
• During transportation, environmental pollution occurs.

Transportation rules

A vehicle with oversized cargo moving on the roads should not accelerate more than 60 km/h. In this case, bridges should be crossed at a speed of no more than 15 km/h. Special attention attention should be paid to the technical condition of the vehicle. The trailer must be equipped not only with a working parking brake, but also with a special device that guarantees stopping the trailer if the air lines of the pneumatic braking system coming from the tractor rupture. The load must be securely fastened, and the integrity of the fastening must be periodically checked.

Exceeding the maximum permitted dimensions and weight of a vehicle (with or without cargo) classifies the vehicle as oversized. Its further operation on public roads of the Russian Federation is impossible without a special permit. Receipt of this document– the process is far from easy, especially for beginners.

How to obtain a permit for the transportation of large and heavy cargo, which organizations should I submit documents to? We will try to dispel vague ideas about solving this problem in our article.

We obtain permission to transport oversized goods

Let's start from the beginning. What kind of cargo can be classified as non-standard? The category of oversized cargo includes cargo whose dimensions and weight exceed acceptable standards during transportation. For example:

• yacht;
• boat;
• steam boiler;
• lift;
• derrick;
• and other similar voluminous objects.

International transportation of this type of cargo requires the availability of permits for travel through the territory of the Russian Federation and other states.

In this regard, permits for oversized transportation may be required:

1. For international transport. Specialist. a permit is issued if the road train must cross the border of the country; without it, the border service will not release the cargo. It is necessary to enter cargo data (CMR). The paper is issued only for one cargo transportation.
2. For interregional transport. Issued if the route passes through three or more constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Such consent can be obtained for a period of up to three months. It is issued by the regional highways directorate. Cargo information must be provided.

For cargo weighing 20 tons or more, and dimensions exceeding 20 meters in length, 2.55 meters in width, and 4 meters in height, a transportation permit is required.

If the object has a length and width greater than 24 and 3.5 meters, respectively, in this case it must be accompanied by a cover vehicle with a flashing yellow or orange light.

When the length of the cargo exceeds 30 meters and the width is 4 meters or more, then its escort should be entrusted to a traffic police patrol car.

Depending on the nature of the cargo, permits issued for the transportation of oversized cargo can be one-time, urgent (indicating the validity period) and for a certain number trips.

Documents for obtaining permission to transport heavy cargo

In accordance with the Instructions for large and heavy cargo, which are regulated by the permit system, it is necessary to submit an application to the appropriate authority specified in the third appendix of the document. A sample application can be found in the fourth appendix of the above Instructions.

You must also attach here:

• Drawings of the cargo indicating its exact dimensions;
• Specification;
• Technical characteristics of the vehicle;
• Loading and unloading addresses;
• The route along which transportation will be carried out.

Important: the transportation permit is valid only for a certain cargo and a specific route.
If the route specified in it changes, the document will again need to be reissued.

Deadline for receiving documents

Having received an application for the transportation of oversized items, department employees will begin the process of coordinating transportation with various authorities to ensure its safety. The height of power lines, the presence of gas pipelines and overpasses along the route are checked, and the need to strengthen the roadway is considered. All this takes a lot of time.

The customer must take into account that obtaining permission to transport large cargo from abroad may take more than one week - it all depends on a particular country. For example, in Sweden, Finland and Estonia, a permit is issued within 1-2 days, but in Russia this period can take up to four weeks.

The right approach to business is the key to success

Transportation of any oversized cargo must be carried out in accordance with and regulated by relevant documents.

After permission for transportation has been received, the transport intended for this purpose undergoes a thorough inspection before the upcoming trip. Drivers must also undergo medical examination at a medical facility.

The issue with the necessary documentation will be resolved without unnecessary problems if you contact a large organization that has the necessary transport equipment in its fleet. In addition, 100% safety of the cargo upon delivery will be guaranteed.

Before transporting oversized cargo, it is advisable to resort to the services of specialized security for the transportation of valuable cargo, as well as to accompany the forwarder. The need for these services increases during transportation involving border crossings. Professional specialists from the listed services, who have experience in such matters, will quickly and competently be able to resolve any problems that arise.

The period for obtaining a permit in the Russian Federation reaches 30 days.

The duties of the forwarder also include monitoring the movement of cargo and transmitting all information to the dispatcher. He, in turn, must keep the transportation customer informed of everything that is happening.

When performing international transportation, the customer is required to provide all documentation for the cargo in order to avoid emergency situations that may arise both when crossing the border and when transporting oversized cargo through the territory of another country, where different transportation rules may apply.

The owner of oversized cargo can also use the insurance service, which will allow him, in the event of damage to the cargo during loading, unloading and transportation, to receive certain compensation for the damage caused.
