325,000 Pound Transformer Delivered to Wind Farm

325,000 Pound Transformer Delivered to Wind Farm

The Logistics Plus project cargo team recently completed the successful delivery of a 325,000 pound transformer to a wind farm in southern Texas. In total, the project took 25 days to complete from pickup to final placement and orientation. This 28 x 12 x 15 foot transformer was transported via rail, unloaded from the rail car to a hydraulic platform trailer, and then hauled to site for final placement.

Due to the weight of the transformer, the containment pit floor at the wind farm was not suitable to bear the weight of any additional support bracing. The Logistics Plus team came up with a robust solution to use much larger beams to carry the transformer the entire distance of the pit without the need for any additional weight applied on the containment pit floor.

Pictures from this project can be seen here.

Seriousness and Kindness

Long-White-Spacer

I know you that you transport gigantic pressurized air tanks, locomotives and tons of other huge equipment from one part of the world to the other; but those 250 face masks, weighing only what, 2 lbs in total? Seriously, I cannot thank you all enough for delivering our state mandated masks right on time. We were closing at 3:30 pm on last Friday, and Julie made it here at 3:28, and it was snowing. We did have some other options, but the other vendors are still waiting for the masks to make their way into their own warehouses, let alone it delivering to us. Witnessing your seriousness and kindness was great too. Thank you all and best regards!

Asset To Our Community

Long-White-Spacer

I would like to thank everyone at Logistics Plus for the two cases of surgical masks.  As stated in previous communications, those masks will distributed to our dedicated and hardworking caregivers who continue to serve individuals with disabilities in the community.

Everyday our caregivers provide hands-on support to consumers in need of assistance with their daily living activities. These surgical masks will offer increased safety to both our caregivers, who are providing an invaluable service throughout this pandemic and the consumers they provide services too.

Logistics Plus is a valuable asset to our community, and we greatly appreciate you.
