About Us
America's origin-side specialist for heavy equipment export preparation – handling every physical step your equipment needs before it moves.
Atlantic Heavy Loaders is a U.S.-based services provider that prepares heavy equipment, machinery, and industrial cargo for transport and export. We're the team that does receiving, storing, dismantling, cleaning, packing, and loading equipment so it's ready to move.
Three decades behind the equipment
Atlantic Heavy Loaders is backed by the team behind Atlantic Project Cargo, bringing more than 30 years of experience in heavy equipment logistics, export preparation, and international transportation. Over the past three decades, our specialists have supported more than 100,000 equipment handling and export preparation projects for over 50,000 customers across the agriculture, construction, energy, and manufacturing industries.
Today, Atlantic Heavy Loaders focuses on the origin side of the export process, providing the services that prepare equipment for international shipment – including receiving, rigging, dismantling, export packaging, compliance coordination, and inland transport to our Houston operations hub. By managing these services under one team, we help simplify complex export projects before equipment is handed over for international transportation.
A Full-Service Origin Solution
Getting equipment ready for export takes more than a forklift and a roll of shrink-wrap. It takes correct disassembly so the load ships within limits, cleaning and treatment that meets destination-country security rules, crating built to the cargo's exact shape and weight, and loading that satisfies the receiving carrier's requirements.
Atlantic Heavy Loaders manages every part of that process in-house — from receipt and storage through disassembly, cleaning, fumigation, packing, rigging, and delivery to port or terminal — so your equipment moves once, clears compliance the first time, and reaches your carrier ready to go.
