Oversize Cargo is a specialized field of transportation that requires extensive expertise and knowledge handling nonstandard cargo – freight that does not fit standard containers, is oversized, over-height / too tall, over-length, over-width / wide, unusually shaped, heavyweight or requires other unusual cargo transportation.
Packair has extensive and exemplary experience when it comes to Hawaii Cargo Services. Handling over-size, out-of-gauge (OOG) cargo is a specialized shipping service when shipping to/from Hawaii or Guam from the U.S. Packair is one of a limited number of transport service providers that expedite domestic ocean freight, air freight, and international freight movements of Oversize Cargo. Freight forwarders, NVOCCs, and other transportation companies may claim to be experts in this field, but often subcontract that service to us.
