Understanding the Complexity of Military Goods Transport

Military shipments are more complex than civilian freight. Each load is part of a coordinated defense supply chain. Carriers must follow strict:

  • Regulations and security codes
  • Delivery schedules
  • Handling procedures
  • Restricted routes and controlled environments

Buchanan’s logistics teams are experienced in moving high-value, sensitive equipment safely and securely.

Strategic Precision in Motion

Before transporting any load, Buchanan Hauling & Rigging conducts:

  • Route and weight assessments
  • Road clearance and bridge capacity checks
  • Coordination with escorts and controlled routing
  • Live communication between dispatch and field teams

This careful planning ensures reliable, precise delivery every time.

Security and Compliance in Every Load

Military shipments often include classified or restricted items. Buchanan Hauling & Rigging follows strict federal regulations, including ITAR and DOT. Key safety practices include:

  • Continuous driver and operator certification
  • Escort and secure transport when needed
  • Full tracking from origin to delivery

Even small mistakes can impact mission readiness. Buchanan prioritizes accuracy at every step.
