How to Ship Heavy Machinery From USA to the Middle East
Are you interested in shipping heavy machinery from the USA to anywhere in the Middle East? Ship Overseas would be more than happy to coordinate the logistics and take care of the details for you. From pricing to ports, we have the experience to ensure your shipment gets there safely. We can start you off with a free quote, but to do that we will need the Year/Make/Model, Pickup Zip Code or Departure Port, and Destination Country.
To help you save on import duty fees, we can professionally dismantle your machinery first (at an extra fee), which makes it simpler to fit your equipment inside the containers. Shipping disassembled machinery is sometimes more affordable because it is considered a shipment of parts rather than a fully assembled machine.
Our team frequently helps construction companies, manufacturers, and private agencies ship their heavy machinery to the Middle East from the USA.
Departure and Arrival Ports
The departure port in the USA will depend on which country in the Middle East you are shipping to. Likewise, the arrival port in the Middle East will depend on the chosen country.

How Much Does it Cost to Ship Heavy Machinery to the Middle East?
We cannot give general prices on shipping heavy machinery to the Middle East for a few reasons. First, there are huge variations in type and weight of equipment, which affects price greatly. Heavy machinery also doesn’t fit into typical size categories like cars do (i.e., compact, mid-sized, full-sized, small SUV, large SUV).
Second, your cost will depend on which departure port your shipment is leaving from. Please call us for the most up-to-date rates possible.
Estimated Transit Time
This will depend on the country you are shipping to. Every country has a different timeline, but typically it takes between a month and a half to two months.

Shipping Method for Shipping Heavy Machinery to the Middle East
We offer the RoRo method for heavy machinery shipments to the Middle East. Our shipping vessels depart every week from many major U.S. seaports to a variety of countries in the Middle East.
RoRo Shipping (Roll On/Roll Off)
Just like the name implies, the equipment you are shipping must roll onto and off of the ship. This ship, similar to a parking garage inside, is perfect for overseas transportation of construction vehicles, boats, motorcycles, motor homes, campers, trailers, and buses. With set departure and arrival dates (sort of like an airport), you can rely on this method in terms of timing.
Do You Need Marine Insurance?
We think everyone should get it, but the decision is entirely up to you. Just remember that you will have to pay out of pocket for any damage that happens if you don’t purchase it. This is rare, but it has happened, especially during hurricane season between June and November. That said, you may cover your machinery for 50% or 75% of the equipment’s value rather than the full 100%.
We offer 1.75% of the value of the machinery for FULL coverage, theft, vandalism, total loss, damage with $500 deductible. Coverage begins when your machinery is loaded onto the ship until the time your pickup person signs for it at the arrival port. Total Loss for 1.25% charge for the value of the machinery.
