+1 (818) 600-0008Importing turbines, transformers, plant modules, and the hundred shipments around them.
Vessel to jobsite through the Los Angeles ports, sequenced to your project schedule under one coordinator.
A late container costs a demurrage bill. A late transformer idles a crane crew, a commissioning team, and every trade behind them. AEEM imports project freight backward from site dates: schedule first, then the sequence, then the ocean, port, and overland legs to hit it, through the Port of Los Angeles and Port of Long Beach. Out-of-gauge pieces ride breakbulk or flat racks, standard components ride containers, everything lands in trade order.
An FMCSA-licensed forwarder running the import end to end: ocean freight, permitted heavy-haul past legal limits, flatbed and step-deck for structural pieces, warehousing and laydown when the site isn't ready, customs clearance coordinated before arrival. One coordinator owns the program, first booking to last delivery, one schedule everyone works from.
We map every shipment in the program against your project schedule: dimensions, weights, origins, and the site dates each piece must hit.
Each piece gets the right method: containers for standard freight, flat rack and permitted heavy-haul for the overland legs, with permits, surveys, and escorts arranged before dispatch.
Shipments move against the master schedule with live tracking, laydown and storage coordinated when the site isn't ready, and the sequence adjusted as the project moves.
Deliveries land inside crane and crew windows with documented proof of delivery, and the program closes with a complete shipment record for your project files.
A Los Angeles based team that manages freight programs the way projects run: sequenced, scheduled, and accountable to site dates.

Ocean, breakbulk, rail, and permitted road moves under one AEEM coordinator and one master schedule, instead of four vendors with four versions of the plan.

Project freight doesn't run banker's hours. Our operations team monitors every shipment in the program, day or night, with one desk to call.

Warehousing and laydown coordination near the ports and near the site, so early arrivals hold safely instead of clogging the project.

Deliveries planned backward from erection and commissioning dates, so material arrives in trade order instead of burying the laydown yard.

Flat rack, breakbulk, and RoRo methods matched to each piece, with the port handling and overland permits planned as one move, not two problems.
AEEM Shipping is an FMCSA-licensed freight broker and forwarder headquartered in Los Angeles County (MC# 1672315, DOT# 4295954, FF# 65907). We run project freight daily through the Los Angeles and Long Beach terminals, with breakbulk and flat rack handling coordinated at the docks. When project pieces land at another gateway, the same coordinator, schedule, and documentation cover it.
Straight answers on breakbulk, out-of-gauge shipping, sequencing, and what project logistics actually covers.
Project cargo is freight tied to a single large project, typically industrial or infrastructure, that is too big, too complex, or too schedule-critical to move as standard freight: imported turbines, transformers, plant modules, and the many supporting shipments around them, coordinated from overseas origin through the port to the jobsite against the project's construction schedule.
Three main ways. Flat racks carry pieces that exceed container dimensions but can still ride a container vessel. Breakbulk vessels lift larger pieces aboard individually with cranes. RoRo vessels take anything that rolls, from machinery to modules on trailers. We match the method to each piece's dimensions, weight, and lift points.
Yes. Pieces exceeding legal road limits move on permitted heavy-haul equipment with route surveys, state permits, and escorts arranged before dispatch, coordinated as one move with the port handling so the piece never sits stranded between modes.
Yes. Sequencing is the core of the service. We build the delivery plan backward from your erection and commissioning dates, hold early arrivals in coordinated laydown or warehousing, and release shipments in the order the site needs them.
Yes. Import entries for project equipment are coordinated before vessel arrival, so clearance never becomes the reason a critical piece misses its window.
Because on a project, freight cost is small next to schedule cost. A crane crew, erection team, and the trades sequenced behind them cost far more per idle day than any shipment saves by moving cheap. Planning backward from the dates the site must hit lets every mode and method decision serve the schedule first.
