Asphalt Paver Shipping for Paving Contractors Worldwide
You run paving work or sell the machines, and a paver needs to reach a job in another country ready to lay mat. How do you ship a tracked or wheeled paver with its screed and conveyor protected? The screed is the part that decides the handling plan.
Texas International Freight ships asphalt pavers from Houston and across the United States to paving contractors and dealers worldwide.
Protecting the Screed and Conveyor
A paver’s screed, augers, and conveyor are the sensitive, projecting parts. We retract or remove the screed extensions where needed, secure the assembly, and cushion it so nothing bends or shifts in transit.
RoRo, Flat Rack, or Breakbulk
Pavers are self-propelled, so roll-on roll-off suits them well. Where RoRo does not serve the destination, the paver ships on a flat rack or as breakbulk, lifted or driven aboard and lashed for the voyage.
Securing and Compliance
We use lashing rated to the machine and prepare fuel, fluids, and batteries to carrier rules. Tracks and tires are blocked so the machine cannot move on deck.
Delivery and Fleet Moves
For a contractor mobilizing a crew abroad, project logistics moves the paver with rollers and support equipment on one plan. We handle export paperwork, customs clearance, and site delivery.

How do you protect a paver’s screed in transit?
We retract or remove screed extensions where needed, secure the screed, augers, and conveyor, and cushion the projecting parts so nothing bends or shifts during the voyage.
Can an asphalt paver ship by RoRo?
Yes. Pavers are self-propelled, so roll-on roll-off is a natural fit where the service runs. On lanes without RoRo, the paver ships on a flat rack or as breakbulk.
Can you ship pavers and rollers together?
Yes. For a paving crew mobilizing abroad, we consolidate the paver, rollers, and support equipment and move them on one schedule so the crew can start work on arrival.
Do you prepare the machine for carrier rules?
Yes. We handle fuel, fluids, and batteries to carrier and customs requirements, and block the tracks or tires so the machine clears for loading and rides secure.
What does it cost to ship a paver overseas?
Cost depends on size, weight, destination, and mode. Send us the model and destination and we return a quote.
