How does a lowbed move from China to Kazakhstan?
By road through the Khorgos crossing, then across Kazakhstan to delivery. The plan starts from dimensions, mass and what the route will accept.
Routes
Lowbed delivery of OOG from China to Kazakhstan and Central Asia
Road haulage of oversized cargo from China starts at the Khorgos crossing. It continues through Kazakhstan and, when the direction is Uzbek, into Uzbekistan, including the through corridor Khorgos–Termez.
Lowbed via Khorgos
Cargo enters at the Khorgos road crossing and continues through Kazakhstan to the delivery point. The exact path depends on length, width, height, mass and which bridges and overpasses will accept the combination. Permits are issued country by country.
Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan
Inside Kazakhstan the cargo is delivered to the point the combination can reach. Uzbekistan has its own road corridor and the through haul Khorgos–Termez across Kazakhstan. The portfolio includes COSCO: Khorgos → Termez, cylindrical cargo on a platform trailer, with video on the cases page.
Equipment
The 45 t, 5-axle lowbed and the 90 t, 10-axle lowbed take OOG and heavy cargo. The curtainsider road train of about 145 m³ is for volume cargo.
Cargo
Transformers, tanks, steel structures, plant and other cargo outside the legal dimensions or axle limit. Volume cargo behind curtains goes on the road train.
Turnkey
Turnkey: permits in each country on the route, a route survey, securing, and an escort when the dimensions or the country’s rule requires one.
