HAMM HD+ 120i VV: transport dimensions, weight and how it ships overseas
The HAMM HD+ 120i VV fits a 40 ft high-cube container after the partial disassembly our crew does: cab or ROPS removed and crated. We crate and label those parts and lash them in the same container, so it ships at container rates to almost any port.

Every way to ship a HAMM HD+ 120i VV, best first
Cheapest first: the shipping cost ladder
We price every machine from the bottom rung up. A machine only moves up a rung when a measurement rules out the cheaper method.
HAMM HD+ 120i VV fits a container once our crew takes a few parts off, still the cheapest way to ship it.
- Rung 1
Container
Lowest cost
Best fit for HAMM HD+ 120i VV
When: Fits through a 7 ft 8 in / 2.34 m × 8 ft 6 in / 2.58 m door and under 59,500 lb / 27,000 kg, whole or after we take off the bucket, boom, cab or wheels.
- Rung 2
Flat rack
Mid cost
When: Too wide or tall for a container door, but within 14 ft 9 in / 4.5 m wide, 13 ft 1 in / 4 m tall and 86,000 lb / 39,000 kg on one rack.
- Rung 3
RoRo
Mid cost
When: Drives or tows aboard, under 19 ft 8 in / 6 m tall and 110 US tons / 100,000 kg, going to a port with regular RoRo sailings.
- Rung 4
Breakbulk
Highest cost
When: Past flat-rack and roll-trailer limits, or shipped as modules lifted aboard piece by piece.
Worked out from the dimensions above against container, flat rack and RoRo limits. RoRo depends on a regular sailing to your port.
