What types of machinery do you handle?

We specialize in agricultural and heavy-duty machinery: combines, tractors, excavators, bulldozers, planters, sprayers, mining equipment, and more. We handle all major brands — John Deere, Case IH, CAT, Kinze, Kubota — and know the disassembly specs for each.

What areas do you serve?

We pick up equipment anywhere in the USA and Canada. Our main facility is in Albion, Iowa, with partner packing yards and port warehouses across the US and Canada. We ship to any port worldwide — Latin America, Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, and beyond.

How long does the entire process take?

Pickup, dismantling, packing and export documents come first, and how long they take depends on the machine and where the seller is. Transit then depends on the destination and on where the cargo is loaded: each destination page lists the figures from our current carrier rates, from US ports or the Chicago rail ramp. For urgent parts we can also arrange air freight. Every quote includes a detailed timeline so you know exactly when to expect delivery.

What container sizes do you work with?

We work with 20ft, 40ft, and 40ft high-cube containers, plus flat racks and open tops for oversized equipment. Our team optimizes every cubic foot of space to keep your shipping costs as low as possible.

Do you handle customs documentation?

Yes — we handle all export paperwork: commercial invoices, packing lists, bills of lading, certificates of origin, and phytosanitary certificates. We coordinate directly with customs brokers to prevent delays at port.

How do you calculate pricing?

Pricing depends on equipment type, dismantling complexity, pickup distance, and destination. Every quote is transparent and itemized — no hidden fees. Check our pricing page for reference rates, or use our freight calculator for an instant estimate.

One Company. Every Step Handled. Your Machinery, Exported Worldwide.

Coordinating a US trucker, a packer, the export paperwork, and a freight line is a full-time job. Meridian Freight handles all four — one team, one invoice, and no contractors for you to coordinate. Your own customs broker clears the machine at destination; in Kazakhstan we can handle clearance on request.
