Motor Grader Shipping for Construction and Mining Worldwide
You need a motor grader on a road job or a mine site in another country, and the machine is long, heavy, and built around a delicate moldboard and circle. How do you ship it without bending the blade gear or wasting money on the wrong mode? The grader’s shape decides the answer.
Texas International Freight ships motor graders from Houston and across the United States to construction and mining projects worldwide.
A Long Machine With Sensitive Gear
A grader’s length and its exposed moldboard, circle, and ripper need planning. We position the blade and articulate the frame to the most compact, protected configuration before the machine loads.
RoRo, Flat Rack, or Breakbulk
A grader drives, so roll-on roll-off is often the most economical mode. When RoRo does not serve the lane, the grader ships on a flat rack or as breakbulk, driven or lifted aboard and lashed down.
Securing and Protection
We secure the articulation, protect the blade and hydraulics, and use lashing rated for the machine’s weight. Fluids and batteries are handled to carrier rules so the unit clears for loading.
Fleet Moves and Delivery
For a fleet headed to one project, project logistics keeps the graders and support equipment on one schedule. We file the export paperwork, coordinate customs clearance, and deliver to the site, and we also run the Mexico and Canada lanes.

Is RoRo the best way to ship a motor grader?
Often, yes. A grader drives, so roll-on roll-off avoids crane lifts and tends to be the most economical mode where the service runs. When it does not serve the lane, the grader ships on a flat rack or as breakbulk.
How do you protect the moldboard and circle?
We position the blade and articulate the frame to the most compact configuration, then secure the moldboard, circle, and hydraulics against movement and cushion exposed parts for the voyage.
Can you ship a fleet of graders together?
Yes. For a road or mining project, we consolidate multiple graders and support machines and move them on one schedule so the fleet arrives ready to work.
Do you handle fluids and batteries for shipping?
Yes. We prepare the machine to carrier and customs rules on fuel, fluids, and batteries so it clears for loading without delay.
What does it cost to ship a grader overseas?
Cost depends on the machine’s size and weight, the destination, and the mode. Send us the model and destination and we return a routing and a quote.
