Construction & Materials

Steel, cement, prefab — to site.

Construction freight is about getting heavy, bulky and time-critical materials onto site in the right sequence — across the border, across the country, and onto site. Select a material above to see what we move and the trailers we move it on.

Bulk and bagged cement, sand, stone and crushed aggregate for foundations and concrete — moved in scheduled loads so the pour is never held up.

Typical trailers
Moving FloorEnd / Dropside TipperT21 Tautliner (bagged)

Reinforcing bar, structural steel sections, beams, columns and mesh — the construction workhorse load, easy to side- or crane-load.

Typical trailers
F21 FlatdeckExtendable Flatdeck (long lengths)

Precast panels, prefabricated units, site offices, ablution blocks and modular buildings — oversized pieces move on permit with escorts.

Typical trailers
F21 Flatdeck / ExtendableLowbed (oversized · abnormal permit)

IBR sheeting, trusses, purlins and cladding systems — weather-protected where it matters, sequenced to the roofing programme.

Typical trailers
T21 TautlinerF21 Flatdeck (trusses)

Excavators, TLBs, cranes, compactors and tower-crane sections — tracked and wheeled plant delivered ready to work.

Typical trailers
SD8 StepdeckLowbed (cranes & heavy plant)

HDPE and concrete pipes, culverts, manholes and drainage — bulky civils stock delivered direct to the trench line.

Typical trailers
F21 Flatdeck

Bricks, blocks, tiles, glass, timber and hardware — finishing materials moved securely, with high-value items tracked and sealed.

Site delivery & compliance

Site delivery

  • Just-in-time sequencing — material lands as the build needs it, reducing on-site storage and double-handling
  • Site access assessed — we check road conditions and access before committing trailer type; tippers and shorter rigs for tight or rough sites
  • Crane & offload coordination — delivery timed to on-site crane availability for structural steel and precast

Compliance & security

  • Abnormal loads — cranes, oversized prefab and long steel need ZINARA permits, route surveys and escorts. Allow 7 working days. (See Project & Special Cargo.)
  • Secure high-value — copper cable, fittings and finishing materials moved with GPS tracking and tamper seals
