Moving medical equipment is always a unique moving or relocation process that requires attention to planning, execution and details. Without any of these three important factors the project may be at risk. Moving and transporting sophisticated and sensitive medical equipment is a very complex procedure, which requires professionals with experience. Great Western Transportation has the vast background for specialized medical equipment moving and transport, plus Great Western Transportation ensures the move always goes smoothly and on-schedule.
Medical equipment that is dimensionally large and heavy such as MRI machines, are best suited for flatbed trailers. Dry vans may make it difficult to load the MRI machine, as opposed to a flatbed trailer that is open and may be loaded via a crane. All equipment may be crated and/or blanket wrapped and shrink wrapped for maximum protection.
Great Western Transportation has transport background with diagnostic imaging equipment including X-Ray, CT, MRI and PET systems. In addition Great Western Transportation is able to facilitate the moves for lab instruments including: automated sample handling systems, centrifuges and numerous other analytical devices used in the medical industry. If you believe you have a unique device, please contact us in order to verify that we have the capacity to transport the particular device.
