Table of Contents

ISS Palumbo is recognized as a reliable partner in the break bulk shipping sector. Thanks to its vast experience and expertise in the field of maritime transport, ISS Palumbo offers customized and efficient solutions to meet the specific needs of customers requiring the transport of oversized goods.

 

Break Bulk meaning

The term “Break bulk” indicates a type of maritime transport in which goods are loaded, transported and unloaded individually, rather than being contained in standardized containers. It involves packing goods into drums, boxes, crates or other containers, and then moving those goods one by one, usually using cranes or other port equipment.

This system is mainly used for goods that are too large, heavy or irregular to be transported in standard containers, such as industrial machinery, construction equipment, heavy vehicles, ship components and wind turbines.

Compared to container shipping, break bulk shipping requires more time and effort, but offers greater flexibility for goods of non-standard sizes and shapes.

Why choose Break Bulk shipping: all the advantages

Compared to conventional container transport, break bulk shipping offers several advantages. Let’s see together what the main ones are.

 

Adaptability to the size and shape of the goods

Break bulk transport allows you to move goods of non-standard sizes, shapes and weights. This is particularly advantageous for bulky, heavy or irregularly shaped goods that cannot easily fit into a standard container.

 

Less need for disassembly and assembly

With break bulk transport, goods can be loaded and unloaded without the need for disassembly or assembly, reducing the risk of damage and saving time and costs associated with these operations.

 

Greater flexibility in load management

It allows for greater flexibility in cargo management, as goods can be individually loaded and unloaded based on the specific needs of the cargo and the recipient.

 

Reduction of packaging costs

Since goods do not need to be fitted into standard container sizes, break bulk shipping can reduce costs associated with packing goods into specific containers.

 

Greater control over the safety of goods

Goods can be handled and inspected individually, allowing greater control over safety and reducing the risk of damage during transit.

 

Adaptability to port and infrastructure requirements

In some cases, ports and infrastructure may not be suitable for container handling or may have restrictions on container sizes. Break bulk transport offers an adaptable solution to such situations, allowing goods to be moved efficiently and safely.
