Project Cargoes To Jalalabad (2004)

Tuscor Lloyds UK Ltd, are renowned for their ability in moving project cargo to some of the most difficult destinations in the world.

In June 2004, Tuscor Lloyds were contacted to move several projects for the Reconstruction Programme in Afghanistan.

One of these shipments involved the transportation to Jalalabad of several large excavators and road rolling machines. The clients had specified that costs and service were of paramount importance due to the nature of the cargo, after all it was for the re-development programme in Afghanistan.

Tuscor Lloyds UK Ltd, stepped up to the challenge of meeting the lowest price with the best service coupled with a critical time frame. The cargo was successfully loaded into 4 x 40' Flat Rack Containers and these containers were successfully delivered to the Consignee's site in Jalalabad, on time and within budget.

This despite the many obstacles involved, such as obtaining the transport permits from both the Afghan and Pakistan authorities, the OOG dimensions, the cargo weight and the current volatile situation facing foreign aid companies.
