How many crane mats per load?

The number of crane mats per truck depends on the dimensions chosen, as the weight varies with size and thickness. In France and Europe, weight is limited to 24 tonnes per load. For the exact quantities per dimension, see our dimensions table .

Do you deliver abroad?

Yes, whether for rental or purchase, we offer transport solutions across Europe and beyond. We work with several freight forwarders, allowing us to guarantee the best price for your destination.

What transport solutions do you offer for delivery?

We have several transport solutions tailored to your destination. For long-distance deliveries, we can use intermodal transport: the trailer travels alone by boat for part of the journey, which slightly extends lead times but significantly reduces costs.

Do I need equipment to unload on delivery?

Crane mats are most often delivered by tarpaulin truck. Unloading is therefore done from the side and requires a forklift on site at the time of delivery. Unloading with a crane is also possible, but this must be arranged in advance with our teams so we can adapt the delivery conditions accordingly.

location

The proximity advantage: save on transport

The main heavy-mat rental companies in Europe are based in the Netherlands, Belgium or the United Kingdom. For a site in the south of France, a truck of crane mats from the Netherlands travels more than 1,200 km, versus less than 300 km from Port-la-Nouvelle to Toulouse, Montpellier or Marseille.

Estimated transport savings: up to €3,000 per truck compared with supply from the Benelux. On a wind farm project requiring several rotations, the cumulative saving is considerable.

This proximity also means shorter delivery times and a faster response in the event of an urgent need or a top-up order during the project.
