Machine relocation with Maxmove
Driven exclusively
No groupage, no hub: your machine travels alone on the vehicle, straight from hall to hall.
Cargo handled to your spec
You record dimensions, weight, centre of gravity, and loading method on the order; load securing follows from that.
Planned around your window
Relocations run in stages. You set pickup and delivery windows to match the dismantling and reassembly plan.
Documented handover
Every stage comes with a timestamped digital proof of delivery — important when several trades are involved.
When a machine relocation is the right order
A relocation is not one transport but a chain of stages with fixed windows. You describe the cargo, the loading option, and the sequence; we run each stage exclusively and document it.
Site relocation in stages
When a production line moves, machines, fixtures, tools, and stock go one after another. You book each stage as its own drive with its own window, so production at the old site keeps running as long as possible.
A single machine into another hall
Even a move within one site needs a vehicle as soon as a public road sits between two halls. You give the pickup and destination hall, the loading option, and the window; we cover the route.
Peripherals, tools, and spare parts
Every machine comes with a control cabinet, fixtures, tools, and spare parts. That cargo travels palletised or in mesh boxes — scheduled before or after the machine, depending on the reassembly sequence.
Vehicles for machines and their peripherals
Machine relocations run on the larger classes: long and extra-long-wheelbase Sprinters, 3.5-tonne box vans, and the open flatbed for loads that will never go through a rear door. The table lists payload, pallet slots, and load area for every class; from-prices are calculated live for the Cologne → Düsseldorf corridor.
