Out Of Gauge (OOG)
Not all cargo is created equal. Heavy, oversized, and awkwardly shaped goods can't fit into standard containers. This creates an out-of-gauge (OOG) scenario, which can be a real challenge.
Yet, we think outside the box to provide a real solution.
Whether it’s a vehicle, mining & defence-related equipment, construction machinery, marine & offshore drilling project, power project, satellite project, or aviation equipment, our team of experts handles out of gauge in Dubai with care through the following:
01
Use of the right equipment and methods for lashing and securing the cargo
02
An in-house team of professionals with engineering and load planning know-how
03
Arranging lashing certificate
04
Surveying, route planning, and obtaining permits from the authorities
05
Arrangement of necessary escort by the relevant authorities during inland transportation of the equipment
06
Customs clearance, inspection, and pick-up or delivery






We specialize in transporting a wide range of OOG cargo, including construction machinery, oilfield equipment, generators, large vehicles, and industrial parts. Our solutions are fully customized based on the cargo’s dimensions and weight.
Depending on the size and destination, we use a mix of sea freight (flat racks, open-top containers), road transport (low-bed or extendable trailers), and air freight (for time-sensitive oversized shipments).
TFI ensures cargo safety through route planning, escort services (if required), secure lashing, lifting gear, and coordination with port and customs authorities. Our Dubai-based logistics team oversees every step.
