Ship Containers from New York to Chicago with Direct Drive Logistics

Direct Drive Logistics was engaged to transport two new, factory, mining excavators from New York, NY to Chicago, IL. The transport of mining machinery was handled by our Logistics Division and routed within our network from the factory in New York to the site in Chicago, IL. The range of our responsibility was to expedite the most cost-effective transport, with the shortest transit time and least stop-overs.

Direct Drive Logistics specializes in moving oversized products between cities in the United States.

Our company completed the door-to-door movement of both excavators, from pick up in New York with delivery to Chicago, in less than 10 days, via the route with the least possible number of handling stops. The biggest individual piece, weighing 32 tons and measuring 150 inches in width, was most challenging to maneuver but, thanks to our extensive experience from previous shipments in this direction, everything went as planned.
