Frequently Asked Questions
How does SEAVOLK route the JCB 508-66 through Georgia?
Poti handling connects with inland transit through Azerbaijan to Baku/Alat. The Trans-Caspian segment reaches Aktau, followed by rail or trucking into Uzbekistan and the receiving-site delivery.
Is custom disassembly required for 40ft High Cube loading?
The intact machine is approximately 2.40 m wide and 2.70 m high; representative High Cube doors provide about 2.34 m width and 2.585 m height. Fork removal alone does not resolve these restrictions. Structural, cab or wheel removal requires manufacturer-approved procedures and engineered supports.
How are export clearance and the U.S. Gate Pass handled?
The release process reconciles the serial number with purchase and ownership documents, nominates the collecting carrier and verifies seller release authority. Export filings and applicable CBP presentation requirements are aligned with the port receiving deadline.
