Because,
in order to ship something large, you have to: acquire permits, commit
appraisals, make sure that you comply with the quarantine standards of the
target country, et cetera. There is also paperwork involved, and it is most
likely too much to bear with even for larger companies that need something big
shipped.
You
should be aware of what the company does - and what it does not. If you are
selling heavy duty goods, offering international shipping would be a reasonable
thing to do, and you should definitely outsource freight forwarders that will
ship it. Pick wisely though, because most freight forwarders offer additional
services that can make your life easier: they can calculate the cost
efficiency, inform you about the customs in target destination, supervise the
loading process, and even make temporary changes to the equipment to save in
shipping costs. If the company doesn't basically guarantee that the shipment
will be sent and received by their people, the chances are that there's a lot
of paperwork waiting for you.
Another
good example would be mining equipment transport; although mining equipment is
rarely sold, companies that offer rental of their mining resources know that
shipping heavy equipment can become an ongoing problem if they don't pick the
right service provider. The company has to have international ties--otherwise
heavy machinery freight can be vastly delayed. The moving service also has to
have contacts with the local companies as shipping expensive equipment can be
dangerous within regions such as Russia and Latin America. You should always
receive a detailed report on how the shipping heavy equipment goes.
And
lastly, always check if Australian freight forwarders commit steam cleaning
when delivering to Australia, New Zealand, or the U.S. In order to speed up the
shipping and make the shipping as inexpensive as possible, the freight
forwarder needs to have knowledge about the local laws and customs in the
delivery destination--but only companies with experience can offer that.
