Carriage in Panama
Trucking in Panama is a must for those who want to transport a small amount of objects over short distances, for an attractive price. In fact, in the market there is a wide variety of offers for hauling services ranging from natural persons who decided to undertake in the world of hauling and removals, to companies that offer these services.
According to its etymology, the word carry comes from the Latin carrus which means vehicle with wheels and in general, it is defined as the action of carrying or transporting something. In summary, we can say that hauling involves transporting something on a wheeled vehicle.
At present, there are many types of hauling that are required, but we could describe the following among the most demanded by our clients:
Furniture hauling
This service is requested when very little furniture needs to be moved from point A to point B, so few items can fit inside a pick-up or small truck between 9 and 18 feet in length. This service requires labor to handle the objects and sometimes also requires a certain degree of packaging to provide protection for the transferred goods. This type of hauling is undoubtedly the most demanded and among the goods that are moved under this mode of transport we find:
Furniture (residential or commercial)
Large appliances (refrigerators, oversized televisions, etc.)
Personal effects
Industrial hauling
These transfers often require the use of equipment to lift heavy objects such as forklifts or cranes, as they are required to move industrial equipment that cannot be carried by people.
Construction hauling
This service is highly demanded and involves loading and transporting construction materials to the place where the work is carried out, but this type of service is also requested for the disposal of construction debris, very common in demolition or remodeling works. This service can be performed by people and does not require the goods to be packed in any way.
Possible risks and fragile materials during hauling
When we have very delicate items, such as glassware, tableware, leather furniture, paintings of medium or high value (economic or sentimental), we recommend you request residential moving services and you have to move the furniture, documents and computer equipment of your company, We recommend requesting office moving services.
Among the most important factors of a haulage service are the execution times of the service, the availability and conditions of the vehicles, however, the clients in addition to an attractive price would also like to receive a quality service, that their goods are treated With due care, using adequate tools and equipment to carry out the loading and unloading maneuvers and above all, every client would like to feel that the people who handle their goods are friendly and have been trained to provide the contracted service.
It is extremely important that the people who carry out maneuvers to carry items have the corresponding training in relation to lifting heavy objects, use of personal protective equipment and customer service, these elements will translate into a high quality service.
Among the risks inherent to hauling in Panama are the following:
Damage to transported goods
This can happen during transit, while loading or unloading the vehicle, even when bringing the goods into your residence. A very effective way to avoid this type of damage is to use material to protect the goods during the entire haulage, use rolling equipment to transport the items with the least effort, use gloves to prevent the goods from slipping and falling, adequate protective equipment to avoid injury while handling the goods.
Damage to the property of the client or third parties
Provided that adequate protection is provided, no damage should occur during a haul, however, when you do not have the proper equipment, you do not provide the required protection on the goods and you do not work with untrained personnel, these types of situations can appear, affecting the company that provides the service and even the client himself, who lives in the PH or residential area. The best way to prevent this type of damage is to train the people who are designated to provide these services, use appropriate equipment to handle heavy objects and use protection for the transported goods.
Another way to mitigate risks is to take out insurance that covers damage, loss, and theft of your assets. We recommend that you select companies that offer insurance coverage on the replacement value of your assets for your shipments in Panama.
We are very aware that in the times that we currently live taking care of our economy is among the highest priorities, therefore we recommend that when hiring a transport service you look beyond what is shown on a website or through Social networks, since currently, the benefits of creating a company through social networks facilitate the mobility of information, but it also leaves a gap open for customers to see only what companies want to show the public. Feel free to ask the company that is going to select images of the equipment that you will use to transport your items, the material with which you will protect your assets, the information related to the insurance company with which you work and the data of the people. who will participate in the service and enter your home.
