What Is Breakbulk Cargo Shipping?

Unlike container freight, breakbulk logistics demands precision, planning, and specialized handling at every stage—from origin to final delivery. With experienced teams and strong port relationships, American Heavy Haul ensures every shipment is managed safely and efficiently.
