The logistics around the transportation of our mobile crane from Sept Iles to Trois-Rivieres, QC included accounting for considerable weight and dimensions of the unit. Following lengthy and re-assuring discussions with McKeil’s Engineering and Commercial Team, we elected to route our mobile crane via their Ro-Ro service. The expertise offered by McKeil instilled us with confidence that our crane would be safely delivered to its destination. Any unforeseen obstacles were handled in an expedited, professional manner.
