Machinery Moving, Relocation, and Installation
Moving industrial machinery is more than just logistics
It involves careful planning, precise dismantling, safe transport and flawless reinstallation. Poorly managed moves cause costly downtime and unpredictable delays.
At Machinery Assist, machinery moving and relocation is what we know best. We handle the entire process — planning, preparation, dismantling, cleaning, loading, transport, site setup and full installation. You get clear timelines, a fixed budget and zero surprises.
What We Do
Machinery Dismantling
Disassembling of single machines or entire production lines, with detailed labeling and documentation for smooth reassembly during moving or relocation.
Special Packaging
Industrial packing, moisture and rust protection, containerisation, shock indicators for transit monitoring, and secure loading — ready for local moving or international shipping.
Rigging & Heavy‑Lifting
Precision rigging, crane and gantry operations for large or heavy equipment — ensuring safe handling and exact positioning during moving and installation.
Transport & Logistics
Complete transport coordination by road, rail or sea — including customs clearance, export compliance and real-time delivery tracking for machinery moving and relocation projects.
Welding & Custom Fabrication
On-site welding and fabrication of additional steel structures or support frames required for new layouts, upgrades or custom process needs.
Machinery Installation & Commissioning
Professional on-site setup, precise alignment, connections, functional testing and dry-run to get your machinery back into production faster after moving or relocation.

How We Ensure a Successful Machinery Moving & Relocation
1. Each project starts with a detailed technical evaluation: we record dimensions, weight, foundation constraints and any special handling needs.
2. We create a clear work plan with realistic deadlines, precise task sequences and defined responsibilities.
3. We allocate qualified personnel, appropriate tools and reserve contingency resources to keep the project on track.
4. We identify potential risks — structural limits, lifting challenges, transport conditions — and prepare mitigation measures in advance.
5. We ensure all necessary local and international permits are in place and that operations comply with safety and legal standards.
6. We dismantle machinery using systematic procedures, clear labeling and secure storage for all parts and documentation, ready for smooth moving or relocation.
7. We use moisture barriers, rust protection, shock indicators and custom crating to safeguard equipment during transport.
8. We choose the best transport mode and trusted carriers. Plan routes for heavy or oversized loads and manage customs clearance when needed.
9. At the new site, we reinstall equipment with exact alignment, secure connections and required mechanical adjustments.
10. We perform a dry-run and functional tests to confirm that the machinery is fully operational and ready for production.
