Case 1650M: transport dimensions, weight and how it ships overseas
At 8 ft 4 in (2.53 m) wide, the Case 1650M is wider than a container door in one piece (7 ft 8 in / 2.34 m), so it ships whole on a 40 ft flat rack (5 in / 0.13 m over width, 3 ft 3 in / 0.99 m over height). RoRo is the alternative where a lane serves your port.

Every way to ship a Case 1650M, best first
Worked out from the dimensions above against container, flat rack and RoRo limits. RoRo depends on a regular sailing to your port.
| # | Best method | Fit | Preparation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 40 ft flat rackBest fit | Out-of-gauge | Ships assembled, blocked and lashed; out-of-gauge surcharge applies (5 in / 0.13 m over width, 3 ft 3 in / 0.99 m over height). |
| 2 | 40 ft high-cube container | After disassembly, across containers | Taken apart and loaded across one or more 40 ft containers, with open-tops for tall pieces: blade off, ripper off, cab or ROPS removed and crated, and track chains and shoes off. We survey the machine first and quote this next to shipping it whole. How we containerize |
| 3 | RoRo | Where a RoRo lane serves the destination | Drives on assembled where a RoRo lane serves the destination. |
| 4 | Breakbulk | Fits as is | Lifted aboard by crane as breakbulk; used when no flat rack or RoRo option suits the port. |

- Backhoe stabilizers and the swing are locked, and the loader bucket travels in the same box.
Case 1650M shipping questions
Does a Case 1650M fit in a shipping container?
At 8 ft 4 in (2.53 m) wide, the Case 1650M is wider than a container door in one piece (7 ft 8 in / 2.34 m), so it ships whole on a 40 ft flat rack (5 in / 0.13 m over width, 3 ft 3 in / 0.99 m over height). RoRo is the alternative where a lane serves your port. It can also be containerized after disassembly (blade off, ripper off, cab or ROPS removed and crated, and track chains and shoes off), across one or more containers; we survey it first and quote both.
How much does a Case 1650M weigh for shipping?
CASE Construction Equipment lists the Case 1650M at 38,200 lb (17,347 kg) (operating weight); the bill of lading uses your machine's own weight.
What are the shipping dimensions of a Case 1650M?
18 ft 8 in × 8 ft 4 in × 9 ft 8 in (5.68 × 2.53 × 2.95 m) (length × width × height) in transport position, from CASE Construction Equipment's published specifications for the Case 1650M.
What has to come off a Case 1650M to ship it?
To containerize it: blade off, ripper off, cab or ROPS removed and crated, and track chains and shoes off. Our crew does the work, crates and labels every part, and loads the pieces across one or more containers, with documentation for reassembly. Shipped whole on a flat rack or RoRo, it needs little or no disassembly.
Can a Case 1650M ship RoRo?
Yes, where a RoRo lane serves your destination port. It drives on under its own power. RoRo from the U.S. reaches fewer countries than containers and flat racks, so we check your port first.
