8 Tons Out of the Box – Emergency Repack at Schiphol

When it comes to special cargo handling, precision and speed are essential. Recently, BTS Logistics Amsterdam (Schiphol) successfully managed a complex project that demonstrates our expertise in time-critical logistics solutions.

The Challenge

In special cargo handling, getting the packaging right is everything. When a shipment in Brussels showed that the inner packaging for an 8-ton crankshaft didn’t meet our safety standards, BTS Logistics Amsterdam (Schiphol) took immediate action to mitigate risk and keep the supply chain on track.

The Solution

Our BTS Logistics team at Schiphol stepped in without hesitation. We arranged time-critical transport from Brussels to our Schiphol warehouse, ensuring the shipment could be addressed as quickly as possible. Once at Schiphol, we rented a crane to safely lift the 8-ton crankshaft from its crate for supplier inspection. Together with specialized partners, we reinforced the packaging – especially the interior – to ensure maximum stability and safety. After inspection and repacking, the shipment was cleared for transport and delivered safely to Dubai.

The Result

Thanks to the quick response of our logistics experts, the crankshaft was protected, the cargo secured, and the supply chain continued without disruption.

At BTS Logistics, we specialize in finding fast, reliable, and tailored solutions for project cargo and special cargo shipments. Whether it’s emergency repacking, heavy-lift handling, or global logistics coordination, our teams are ready to ensure your cargo arrives safely and on time.
