Special Transport Specialists

Oversized Cargo in Chile

Oversized cargo, project cargo, indivisible cargo and mining equipment transport. We handle SPSI Vialidad MOP permits, coordinate escorts and deliver to mining sites across Chile. 30+ years of experience.

Oversized cargo and project cargo specialists

At Delpa Group we move cargo that does not fit in a standard container: mining equipment, transformers, shovels, mills, generators, industrial structures and heavy machinery. We combine operational experience with deep knowledge of SPSI permits, road restrictions and critical routes to Chile's major mining sites.

We operate as a full-service freight forwarder: port unloading, storage, customs clearance, oversized transport, escort and delivery to site. One coordination, one invoice.
