Specialist cargo is where Riffblox earns its money. Anything where the question isn’t “which sailing” but “how do we even get this onto a vessel” — that’s our team. We’ve loaded 78-tonne hydraulic presses onto chartered RoRo, walked yachts onto flat-racks at Westport, and flown emergency replacement bearings from KLIA to Adelaide in eleven hours flat.
Each project move gets a written route plan, a named project manager and a marine warranty surveyor where the underwriters require one.
What we move
Heavy-lift & oversized
Mining and quarrying equipment, transformers, generator sets, modular building components, pressure vessels. Multi-axle low-loader transport with pilot vehicle and JKR escort permits coordinated by our team.
Yacht & boat haulage
Cradle-loaded yachts on flat-rack or RoRo from Sutera Harbour, Straits Quay and Puteri Harbour. Cradle fabrication, lashing and yacht-prep through our partner yard at Pulau Indah.
Fine art & high-value
Climate-controlled crating, dual-driver airport-to-airport runs, hard-sided cases with shock and tilt indicators. Discreet documentation handling for private collections and gallery loans.
Pharma & clinical trial
Cold-chain shipments with continuous logging, GDP-aligned SOPs, and validated couriers for clinical samples. Riffblox sits inside the IATA CEIV pharma framework on our chill-room operations.
Dangerous goods
IMDG and IATA Cat. 6 certified team. Lithium batteries, paints, perfumes, hazardous waste, radioactive isotopes (Class 7) with prior MoH approval. We don’t outsource the declaration to a third party.
Time-critical & AOG
Aircraft-on-ground spares moved next-flight-out from KLIA, KCH or PEN with dedicated hand-carry by an OBC (on-board courier) when the value of the downtime justifies it.
How a project move runs
- Pre-survey at origin: a Riffblox engineer or local agent inspects the cargo, takes measurements and photographs and confirms lifting points.
- Route study: highway clearance heights, bridge tonnage, port crane reach and destination unloading method are checked and signed off.
- Engineered loading plan: drawn lift plan, lashing scheme and stowage drawing approved by a marine warranty surveyor where applicable.
- Permits and escorts: JKR oversized-load permit, JPJ escort booking, port-state notice of arrival, and any export licence handled by our team.
- Execution: project manager on the dock or tarmac, with a single WhatsApp group for client, surveyor and operations.
- Closing pack: photo report, port-out and port-in tally sheets, surveyor’s certificate and signed delivery POD.
