Logistics

Haubot Logistics coordinates the physical movement of machinery, equipment and industrial assets — by air, ocean, rail and road. It plans around the asset, not just the box: weight distribution, lifting points, permits, sensitivities to shock and humidity are priced into the route from the start.

Like the other services, it can be ordered standalone or wired into a Haubot transaction.

Standalone vs. transaction-integrated

• Standalone logistics — order Haubot as a regular freight forwarder for any shipment, whether or not it touches the platform. Relocations, supplier shipments, project moves, one-off cross-border tasks.
• Transaction-integrated logistics — wired into a Haubot listing, auction or managed deal. Inspection reports, route plans, customs documents and delivery confirmations land in the same UnitVault as the transaction, and the timing sequences with payment and release. For Haubot Managed Auctions, this is the default shape.

What it covers

Multimodal transport across major trade corridors in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, the CIS and the Americas:

• Air — AOG, urgent spare parts, high-value components, onboard courier, charter options.
• Ocean — RO-RO, flat rack, open top, breakbulk, project cargo, FCL and LCL.
• Rail — China–EU and CIS corridors, wagon loading, transshipment, synchronised last-mile road.
• Road — lowbed trailers, escort vehicles, oversized permits, remote site access, final mile.

It also handles the paperwork discipline: export declarations, transport documents, exit confirmation, destination customs clearance and delivery confirmation — gathered in a per-shipment UnitVault rather than scattered across email.

Who is the carrier

Worth being precise about: for air, ocean and rail segments the underlying carrier is the named airline, shipping line or rail operator. Where partner trucking is used, that partner is the contractual carrier for that leg. Haubot acts as freight forwarder and project coordinator end-to-end — owning the plan, the documentation and the accountability to you — rather than being the legal carrier on every segment.

Sanctions and dangerous goods

Counterparties, end-use and destinations are screened before booking. Dual-use and military-adjacent equipment goes through the appropriate export-control screening, and shipments that don't clear are declined. Dangerous and regulated goods are handled through certified partners, subject to cargo classification, route approval and documentation review.

How it connects to the other services

Logistics milestones — collection, loading, export clearance, bill of lading, delivery — can be the release conditions inside SecureTrade. A Haubot Inspect pre-shipment or post-transport check establishes a clear before-and-after condition record around the move. The delivery route and timing are also part of what Financing has to align a financing structure with.
