What We Do: Comprehensive Heavy-Duty Machinery Customs Brokerage
Importing heavy-duty equipment into Nigeria requires more than just filing paperwork. These machines are often oversized, high-value, or complex cargo types that require careful coordination with government agencies, terminal operators, and transportation networks.
At Cargoburg, our heavy-duty machinery customs brokerage service covers everything required to clear and move your cargo efficiently and lawfully:
Proper classification and tariff code assignment to reduce risk and avoid overpayment.
Processing of Form M, PAAR, and necessary import permits (SONCAP, NESREA, NAFDAC where applicable).
Coordination of pre-arrival documentation and compliance reviews.
Inspection facilitation and terminal handling oversight to avoid demurrage.
Fast-track customs clearance and duty assessment through our licensed agents.
Delivery to final destination via inland haulage, drayage, or escort convoy as required.
Temporary import approvals for leased machinery or equipment brought in for short-term projects.
We handle everything from road graders, cement mixers, and tower cranes to generators, turbines, marine engines, and specialized industrial systems. Regardless of the machinery’s origin or dimensions, our team ensures it moves from port to site with precision and efficiency.
Additionally, our project logistics services are perfect for major construction and engineering operations that require detailed planning and timed delivery of equipment across multiple locations. We work hand-in-hand with your procurement and logistics teams to build a route plan, secure necessary government approvals, and manage risk—all while keeping your cargo safe and your operations running on schedule.
Why Cargoburg Stands Out in Machinery Brokerage
1. Proven Track Record and Experience
With years of experience navigating Nigeria’s complex import and customs system, we have successfully cleared thousands of heavy-duty equipment shipments. Our clients include construction companies, government contractors, mining operators, manufacturers, and oilfield service providers. Our ability to deliver results—on time and within budget—makes us a leader in our field.
2. Licensed and Accredited
Cargoburg is a fully licensed customs agent in Nigeria, authorized by the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) and other government bodies. We work in full compliance with all trade laws, including SON, NAFDAC, and NESREA regulations. We are also a recognized freight forwarding company in Nigeria, which means we can coordinate the entire shipment journey—whether via air, sea, or land.
3. Seamless Integration of Logistics Services
Unlike brokers who only focus on customs documentation, we provide complete logistics support. From freight consolidation and port handling to warehousing and last-mile delivery, we manage your cargo every step of the way. This vertical integration saves you time, reduces vendor friction, and ensures that your cargo arrives in perfect condition.
4. Fast and Transparent Communication
We prioritize clear, timely communication with our clients. Our tracking systems and communication platforms allow you to monitor your cargo and receive real-time updates about its status. Whether your shipment is at the terminal, in customs inspection, or en route to your site, we keep you informed.
5. Environmentally Conscious Practices
As part of our commitment to sustainability, we implement eco-friendly practices in our logistics operations. These include fuel-efficient haulage planning, optimized cargo loads to reduce emissions, and digital documentation to minimize paper waste. Our team continues to explore innovative solutions that align logistics efficiency with environmental responsibility.
6. Tailored Service for Every Client
No two shipments are the same. That’s why we offer personalized service for every project. Our logistics professionals take the time to understand your business needs, timeline, and compliance challenges, allowing us to deliver custom solutions that match your exact requirements.
