OOG & Breakbulk Units
Out-of-gauge pieces that will not fit a standard box — vessels, transformers, structural sections, and machinery arriving as breakbulk. These are lift-off moves, coordinated so the crane and our trailer meet at the same moment.

Port to Foundation
One Road Leg
Port-to-Site Heavy Transport, Door to Foundation
EQP AXIS is the road leg for heavy and out-of-gauge cargo landing at Jebel Ali Port. Your freight forwarder or clearing agent handles the sea freight and customs; we take the unit off the terminal and put it where it needs to be — a construction site, a plant, or a yard anywhere in the UAE.
Port collections are the most time-sensitive work we do, and for a straightforward reason. Once the free period ends, storage charges accrue daily against cargo that is doing nothing. So these moves get planned around the release of the cargo rather than around our own schedule.
Jebel Ali is where most of this work happens, and we also collect from Khalifa Port and Hamriyah where the routing suits. If your cargo is landing at a different terminal, ask — the constraint is usually the road leg, not the port.
Cargo We Move Out of Jebel Ali
Jebel Ali handled a record 5.67 million tonnes of breakbulk in 2025, up 6% year on year according to DP World — and breakbulk is precisely the cargo that cannot simply be put on a standard trailer and driven away.
Flat Racks & Open Tops
These are the only container types we target, and deliberately so. They carry the cargo that actually needs specialised trailers, permits, and engineered securing — standard closed boxes are forwarder work.
Machinery & Plant Equipment
Excavators, loaders, generators, compressors, and plant arriving for projects or fleet expansion. Tracked and tall units move to a lowbed so travel height stays legal once the deck is under them.
Project Cargo for Forwarders
We work as the road leg for freight forwarders who have the sea freight and clearance covered but need heavy-haul capability inland. One point of contact, and we work to your schedule rather than issuing our own.
How Port Collection Works
- 1
Delivery order & gate pass coordination
We work back from your clearing agent’s release timing so the trailer is at the gate when the cargo is available — not a day either side of it.
- 2
Trailer & axle selection
Weight and dimensions decide the unit. Tall or tracked cargo goes to a lowbed; flat-deck cargo to a flatbed; anything past 130 tons net needs the 6-axle with its extension fitted.
- 3
Lift-off & loading at the terminal
For OOG and breakbulk, the terminal crane lifts directly onto our deck. We position, secure, and lash before anything moves, with the load placed over the axle groups rather than centred by eye.
- 4
Permits & escorts if over-dimension
If the unit exceeds the legal envelope, RTA and police permits and escort vehicles are arranged in-house, along with a height and bridge-clearance check on the delivery route.
- 5
Delivery & offload support at site
We deliver to the site, plant, or yard and support the offload — including ramp offloading for self-propelled machines and positioning for crane lifts.
Customs clearance is handled by your appointed clearing agent. We are the transport leg — being explicit about that boundary is how both sides avoid assuming the other has it covered.
Cargo landing at Jebel Ali?
Send the vessel, ETA, and cargo details. We will confirm the trailer, whether permits are needed, and a realistic collection window.
Moves Within and From JAFZA
A lot of heavy cargo does not leave Jebel Ali in one move. Equipment gets stored, worked on, or staged inside JAFZA before it goes anywhere, and each of those steps is a trailer movement of its own.
We handle yard-to-yard moves inside the free zone and zone-exit moves out to the mainland, with the same trailer selection and securing standards as a long-haul run. Short distance does not make a 90-tonne machine easier to move — it just means the loading matters more than the driving.

Onward movements from Jebel Ali to Oman and Saudi Arabia are also regular work, with the customs and permit paperwork for the crossing handled in-house rather than passed to a third party.
The Trailers Behind the Collection
Port cargo arrives in whatever shape it arrives in, so trailer choice is decided by the unit rather than by what happens to be free that day.

Jebel Ali Port Transport FAQs
Can you collect out-of-gauge cargo directly from the terminal?
Yes. OOG and breakbulk units are collected from the terminal with the lift-off coordinated against our trailer arrival, so the unit is placed straight onto the deck rather than double-handled. We select the trailer and axle configuration from the unit dimensions and weight before the collection is scheduled.
Do you handle the delivery order and gate pass?
We coordinate with your clearing agent on delivery order and gate pass timing so the trailer arrives when the cargo is actually released. Customs clearance itself stays with your appointed clearing agent — we are the transport leg, not a customs broker, and being clear about that avoids a gap nobody covers.
Which container types do you haul?
Flat racks and open tops. Those are the container types that carry cargo needing specialised trailers, permits, and securing. Standard closed boxes are general haulage work and better served by a container forwarder.
How quickly can you collect after the vessel discharges?
It depends on when the cargo is released, when the gate pass clears, and trailer availability for the unit size. Send the vessel name and ETA with the cargo details and we will confirm a realistic collection window rather than a number we cannot hold to.
Do you deliver outside Dubai?
Yes — all seven Emirates, including Abu Dhabi industrial areas such as Musaffah, ICAD and KEZAD, and the northern emirates. Cross-border movements to Oman and Saudi Arabia are also regular work, with the paperwork handled in-house.
