Moving Helicopters

Helicopters range from small, lightweight models to larger, heavy-duty ones used for commercial or military purposes, thus planning must account for the specific dimensions and weight of the helicopter to ensure the appropriate equipment and transportation methods are used. Our TWL teams use the proper equipment necessary for helicopter moves, from cranes, forklifts, and slings to rigging equipment. Moving helicopters may require permits and compliance with various regulations; this may involve obtaining oversized load permits for road transportation, adhering to aviation security protocols, and following guidelines for transporting hazardous materials if applicable. It’s important to consider the specific regulations and requirements of each jurisdiction and transport route. At TWL, safety is paramount when moving helicopters. Our teams adhere to rigorous safety protocols, risk assessments, and they have been properly trained. TWL members give focused attention to load balancing, to securing the helicopter during transportation, and to mitigating any potential risks to personnel, equipment, or the environment. As with any heavy lift logistics operation, it’s crucial to consult with experienced professionals who have expertise in aircraft engine and helicopter transport to ensure the safe and efficient movement of your heavy lift cargo. Our teams are ready to assist you.
