April 25 - Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics Abnormal Load Services (WWL ALS) has arranged the transportation of two 15-tonne tanks from the West Midlands to Hull in the UK.
The tanks, each of which had the dimensions 14 m x 4.6 m x 4.6 m, were transported to Hull on beam trailers. Each truck was accompanied by an escort vehicle due to the size of the cargo.
WWL ALS also had to arrange for the removal of the gate at the final destination because of the large width of the cargo.
