Bulky goods are mainly oversized and overweight items for export transportation. Normal containers cannot be shipped, and can only be carried by bulk carriers or ro-ro ships or frame containers.
The sea transportation of bulky goods can also be called: bulky sea transportation and bulky shipping, which is a general term for the sea transportation of goods that greatly exceed the general standard in terms of volume and weight. In terms of volume: it includes three super-high, super-wide and super-long items, as well as ordinary bulky items with irregular volumes. In terms of weight: mainly refers to overweight goods by sea. Large-scale shipping is mainly reflected in large-scale machinery and equipment, engineering equipment, drilling platforms, yachts, bridge modules, locomotives, container bridge cranes, etc. Large-scale shipping is a perceptual perception of the volume and weight of goods by practitioners. Large-scale shipping is a relative concept. For maritime practitioners, it is generally measured by relative logistics weight and volume.
Moreover, large-scale goods are not the same as general container export transportation. There will be additional hoisting costs on both sides of the export and import, and there are ground operating costs, so these need to be calculated in the cost.
