Landrover Defender Engine Shipment to England

Crate Pros was recently selected by a company in the United Kingdom (England) to pack, crate, and ship a Landrover Defender engine back them as a part of a warranty return and replacement. Because of the odd shape and size of the diesel engine, we created a cradle that would both level and balance the engine for shipment. Once bolted to the cradle, the engine was secured to the crate base to ensure minimal movement in transit overseas. Since this was an international air shipment, the engine needed to be drained, purged, and rinsed of all liquids in accordance with IATA Special Provision A70. As with most international shipments, both air and ocean transport were considered and offered to the customer, but based on their timeline, air transport was the only feasible option for this freight.
