Cargo
Transporting industrial boilers
Steam and hot-water boilers for industry and heating plants travel as compact, heavy units – from the manufacturer to the site or when replacing old plant. The challenge is often getting them into the boiler house.
What matters
- Compact and heavy
- High weight on a small footprint – vehicle and floor load count.
- Moving in
- Through wall openings, roof openings or by skidding into the boiler house.
- Replacement
- Old boiler out, new boiler in – often within one window.
- Attachments
- Burners, fittings and insulation travel separately or are fitted later.
Planning questions
We clarify these points before quoting – the earlier they are known, the more precise the plan.
- What dimensions and weight?
- How does the boiler get into the building?
- Is an old boiler being removed?
- What is the access to the boiler house like?
- What time window applies?
What we need from you
- Dimensions and weight
- Route into the building (in conversation)
- Time window
- Old boiler yes/no
Preparation: You hand over the cargo ready for loading with known lifting points – dismantling, assembly and foundation work are handled by your team or your installation partner.
What we do for you
What we organise
- Feasibility check per project with questions on missing values
- Coordination of permits, escort vehicles, route surveys and lifting equipment via partners
- Quote with the agreed scope once the transport can be planned
Good to know
Clarify insertion openings in wall or roof early – we plan crane and delivery to match.
How it works
- 01
Request
You state the cargo, dimensions and weight per piece with units, rough route and time window – marking anything unknown.
- 02
Review
We check dimensions, route in and access and clarify lifting and partners.
- 03
Quote
After the feasibility check you receive a quote with the agreed scope, including partner services.
- 04
Execution
Transport, unloading and – via partners – moving in up to the agreed point.
Questions and answers: Industrial boilers
How does a large boiler get into the boiler house?
Through existing or created openings, by crane or skidding – organised via partners.

Yes, if agreed. Removal and release are done by the client.
Who opens the wall or roof for moving in?
The client or its construction company. We state the required dimensions.
