Preparing trucks and construction equipment for export

Selling a truck, construction machine or other heavy equipment to a customer abroad? For smooth export it is important that the vehicle is well prepared technically, administratively and logistically. Gebr. Heinhuis can make vehicles and machines fully export-ready.

From technical inspection and repairs to export documentation and transport: we can combine various parts of the export process. This ensures your vehicle or machine is properly prepared before it sets off for the final destination.

Technical inspection for export

Before a vehicle or machine is exported, it is wise to check its technical condition. Our experienced technicians can inspect the equipment and assess which work is needed to make it ready for transport and use.

Depending on the type of vehicle or machine we can, among other things, check general technical condition, visible wear and relevant maintenance points. If desired, the findings can be recorded in an inspection report.

Repairs and maintenance for shipment

Are technical issues found during the inspection? Then many repairs and maintenance tasks can be carried out directly in our own workshop.

Think of fixing technical faults, repairs, maintenance or practical adjustments that are needed before the vehicle or machine is shipped. Because we perform these tasks in-house, communication lines remain short.

Export documentation and customs handling

In addition to the technical preparation, the correct documentation is also important. Depending on the destination and the type of transport, various export and customs documents may be required.

Gebr. Heinhuis has extensive experience in international trade and can assist with the necessary export documentation, customs formalities and storage under customs conditions. This reduces the risk of delays during transport or at the border.

Preparation for transport by land, sea or air

A machine transported by road sometimes requires different preparation than equipment sent by ship or plane. We therefore tailor the preparation to the chosen transport method and the final destination.

We can also organize the actual transport. From road transport within Europe to sea freight and international delivery: the entire process can be handled by a single party.
