Project Cargo, Heavy Lift and Oversized Shipments in West Africa
End-to-end project freight management for cargo that does not fit regular container lines, by Alov Air-Sea Ltd.
Planned from Origin to Final Site
Alov Air-Sea Ltd manages project cargo: shipments that are too large, too heavy or too irregular for regular container lines. This includes industrial machinery, construction equipment, power generation components and other oversized freight. Our project cargo team plans the route and runs it from origin to the final site.
Every job starts with the cargo's dimensions, weight, route and timeline. The plan then covers each stage of the journey: collection, road haulage, port handling, ocean or air transport, customs clearance and placement on site. Route surveys check bridge capacities and clearance heights before the truck leaves.

Coordinating Air, Sea and Road
Project cargo often needs more than one transport mode. Our sea freight team arranges ocean transport for heavy and oversized consignments, and our air freight team handles time-critical components that need to arrive ahead of the main shipment. Once the cargo reaches port or airport, our inland transportation team runs the road haulage to the final site with the right vehicle for the load.
Customs Handled In-House
We are customs approved and members of the Easyfresh Strategic Alliance, First Worldwide Network and FIATA, so customs documents and clearance for project cargo imports and exports are handled in-house. Years of moving loads through customs and across West African borders help us spot delays early and plan around them.
