Port Pick-Up & Deliveries
Weekend Hold, Monday Gold: Specialized Solutions
The Challenge: Transporting oversized freight often comes with unique obstacles, and even though we coordinate equipment moving on RGNs routinely, this 10’ wide and 10’5” tall tractor was no exception. While the mileage suggested a next-day delivery, the pickup occurred right before the weekend, presenting a unique logistical challenge: the consignee does not accept deliveries on weekends. This required a creative solution to ensure the load was delivered securely and on time.
The Solution: Recognizing the delivery constraints, we worked closely with our trusted carrier to arrange for secure storage over the weekend. The driver safely held the load until Monday morning, ensuring a seamless delivery first thing when the consignee was available to receive it. This approach also avoided the tractor staying at the port and incurring significant storage fees, providing a cost-effective and customer-focused solution.
The Result: Thanks to proactive planning and excellent communication with all parties involved, the tractor was delivered safely and on time to Court House, Ohio. This case highlights ZMac’s commitment to figuring things out for our customers, no matter the challenge.
