Industrial Equipment Shipping from China — Door-to-Site DDP

How heavy industrial equipment ships from China: project-cargo modes, export packing, lifting plans and door-to-site DDP delivery.

XCJD Logistics is a China-based international freight forwarder founded in 2011 that ships industrial equipment and project cargo — 15+ years, 8,000+ shipments, 150+ destinations.

Direct Answer

Industrial equipment ships from China as project cargo via flat rack, open top, RoRo or break bulk, with export packing and lifting plans included. DDP covers freight, insurance, clearance, all applicable duties and taxes, and door-to-site delivery with certified rigging — one fixed price.

Why This Matters

Industrial equipment is heavy, odd-sized and often time-critical for a production line. Project-cargo handling — dimensional verification, packing, route planning and destination rigging — is what keeps the machine arriving on schedule and intact.

Expert Explanation

Mode selection

| Cargo profile | Mode | | --- | --- | | Heavy, wide or long | Flat rack / open top | | Self-propelled units | RoRo | | Construction/mining projects | Break Bulk / project cargo |

The chain

  1. Dimensional and weight verification
  2. Export-grade packing and pest-treatment compliance
  3. HS classification and export documentation
  4. Loading supervision at origin
  5. Sea/rail/air freight with optional insurance
  6. Destination clearance and door-to-site delivery with certified rigging

Requirements

Equipment type, dimensions, weight, origin city, destination country and site address, and whether the unit is self-propelled, crated or on skids.

Common Mistakes

  • Booking standard containers for out-of-gauge equipment.
  • Skipping pest-treatment compliance.
  • Forgetting destination rigging and inland delivery.
  • Guessing HS codes on industrial equipment.
