Mega Transports Season 1
Everyone knows heavy haulage: large parts are transported on big trucks with yellow warning lights on streets. However, all that is "peanuts" compared to our "mega transports": heavier, larger, more complicated and more unusual. These require pinpoint planning, which can only take place with special safety precautions, and for which large teams plan months in advance before things are ready.

Mega Transports Season 1 Full Episode Guide
When the first ship of the brand-new OOCL-fleet gets underway, more cargo is moved at one time than anywhere else in the world and ever before. The vessels are the largest ever ordered - 400 meters long and about as wide as a football field (58.8 meters). These ships will not only be able to load more cargo than ever, they will also be equipped with a number of high-class energy-saving systems.
Everyone knows it: Housemoving is a lot of work, requires excellent planning and costs time and money. Just imagine how it must be if you are moving an entire village - as a whole. Impossible? The dutch logistic and heavy transport company Mammoet says: Not for us! And that's what they do: the Swedish city of Malmberget has to make room for a mine and therefore move to nearby Koskullskulle.
A giant of the skies - the Antonov AN-124-100M-150. Worldwide the biggest production cargo aircraft of all time. No aircraft can transport more goods than the Russian giant. At the height of the Cold War: an important means of national transport and prestige object for the Soviet Union. Today: it is in use all over the world and is the queen of international air transport.
Meyer Werft in Germany is one of the biggest shipbuilders in the world. But it's problem is as big as the ships it builds: the coast and sea are 50 kilometres away. From Papenburg, the only route to the North Sea leads via the shallow and narrow river Ems which is actually entirely unsuitable for conveying gigantic cruise ships. But still, every Meyer Werft ship has to negotiate this channel.
If a transporter needs to be transported, if 176 wheels aren't enough to carry its weight and if the load weighs twice as much as the transporter... Then it must be the mother of all mega transports! The setting: Canada. The cargo: an ultra-class dump truck. The heroes: tough men with delicate fingers and eagle eyes.
Transporting a ship by a ship - this becomes necessary when the super-rich want their super yacht available at a vacation paradise at the other end of the world, but do not want to sail it there themselves. That's when specialized companies like Sevenstar Yacht Transport come into play who take yachts across the oceans to the still so smallest islands or as a mass delivery to the Côte d'Azur.
