24 cable reels, measuring 1,426cbm and weighing a total of over 800tn, from the Far East to UK. The cargo required specialist handling and storage at Liverpool Port, followed by delivery to North Wales after a thorough road survey. The operations ran smoothly and successfully with all the reels delivered on time to the delight of the customer.
The safe discharge and storage of 66 battery units at Portsmouth Port. All units were safely discharged from the vessel and transported to storage under the supervision and guidance of Lysander staff. They offered Portsmouth as the most suitable port in the area for the project and all operations worked to perfection to the complete satisfaction of the client.
Two dumper trucks (each at 6.0 x 2.8 x 3.5m / 8,000kg) shipped to Australia. Lysander collected and delivered the trucks to the loading port to meet the RORO vessel. Due to the stringent quarantine requirements in Australia, they also arranged the cleaning of the units prior to shipment.
A hydraulic drill (2.55 x 10.80 x 3.55m / 28tn) plus spare parts shipped to Shanghai via RORO service. Lysander arranged the collection with a lowbed trailer using ramps for the loading and discharge at the port.
