From origin to remote site — project forwarding, own-fleet heavy haulage, and discharge into foundations.
In Chile, freight forwarders subcontract heavy haulage. Heavy haulage operators subcontract forwarding. Every interface is a potential point of failure — and in project cargo, failure means your timeline, your budget, and your relationship with the client.
Your Chilean agent confirmed HMT capacity. In practice, they book it from a third-party fleet. When that fleet has a conflict, you find out on the day of transport.
Forwarding clears customs. Haulage moves the cargo. When the handoff fails — wrong weight declared, permit delay, truck unavailable — neither party owns the problem. You do.
At 2am, when a 180-ton transformer is stopped at a mountain pass and the SPSI permit doesn't cover that section, you need one phone number. Two-operator chains don't have one.
Each case documents a specific logistics challenge — the cargo, the constraint, and how Tecniproject delivered from port to site.
Chile's roads cap cargo height at 5 meters. Each transformer weighed 160 tons and, on any standard vehicle, wouldn't clear that limit. Four of them had to reach Subestación Ancoa, VII Región.
Four transformers needed to reach their foundations inside an urban substation. The problem wasn't the route from San Antonio — it was the last stretch inside the facility: tight angles, narrow passages, walls on every side.

Tecniproject is the only project cargo operator in Chile combining in-house freight forwarding with an own fleet of heavy haulage equipment — hydraulic modular trailers, low beds, heavy trucks, and gantry crane with jacking and skidding capacity — under a single contract.
We operate from origin to final site. No subcontracted haulage. No split responsibility. One chain of accountability.
