<h1 class="mt-0">What is heavy goods transport?</h1>
<p>Items that are too heavy and need to be delivered to a specific destination but cannot be transported with standard shipping services are called “heavy goods”. Such things as machinery and other very long, heavy, high and wide loads need specific vehicles. Logistics providers are the ones who organise the delivery of heavy goods transport.</p>
