I wanted to thank you for setting us up with Doria Troian at Logistics Plus for the transport of the Ward Diecutter. From the outset, Doria was accommodating, professional, and responsive. Her information requests from me were clear, and her communication throughout the entire process was outstanding.
What was most impressive, however, was the way she handled the problems that arose. When the flat bed that arrived in Spokane, MO was too high for the loading dock, she handled the situation quickly and correctly. And when the two flatbeds failed to arrive on time at Fort Smith, Doria remained calm, did not panic, and talked the drivers all the way on to the dock. All this, while keeping my installer (and me) from jumping off the ledge and incurring additional charges from the riggers. Doria really stepped up at the critical moment.
In this day and age, where people only contact you to complain about what went wrong, I wanted you to know how much I appreciate that these shipments went right.

On behalf of its principal Stute Verkehrs, Logistics Plus China has managed the receipt, storage, and delivery to Changzhou job site of an industrial press, totaling 2600 freight tons, including some units of over 90 metric tons.
Some highlights of the project:
- LP China advised the customer to change the port of discharge to Jiangyin because of unsafe storage conditions in Changzhou port 2. days after the change was made, there was a fire in Changzhou port
- LP China managed to have a customer vessel berth September 27th ahead of 3 other vessels, thus avoiding the increased port charges coming into effect October 1st
- LP China managed to finish customs clearance even before cargo finally discharged, thus avoiding cargo from being stuck during the National Holiday starting October 1st
- Through careful planning, weekly meetings, and daily phone calls, LP China managed to adapt deliveries to the ever-changing needs of the job site without any waiting time or additional cost to the customer
- LP China adhered strictly to job site HSE regulations, which is a rare feat in China

“This oversized cargo passed through the port of Tarragona, Spain before it could be delivered to the final site at the Tarragona facility of Dow Chemicals. Not an easy task: we had to pass via University land, had to clear the brush…and, as the main unit was 810 CM and 500 CM height (only 20 T!), we had to lift it three times over small gates and fences in order to deliver to the client.” Well done, Ivo and the team of Logistics Plus.
