Equipment
Equipment and transportation configurations
CG Logística works with different types and capacities of equipment, from relatively small loads to higher-volume shipments.
The configuration is assigned according to each shipment, rather than limiting the operation to a single type of vehicle.
Dry box or flatbed
Dry box
Protects the goods from direct exposure to rain, dust, wind, and other outside conditions. It suits packed goods, boxes, finished products, raw materials, industrial components, commercial products, and palletized freight.
Flatbed
Makes loading and unloading easier and can carry products that do not fit easily inside a closed box, including industrial material, machinery, equipment, structures, and construction materials.

Direct capacity and a carrier network
The operating model combines units and resources under CG Logística’s direct operation with a network of carriers that can join certain jobs according to the type of cargo, availability, capacity, the route, and the configuration required.
This model widens the equipment options available for each job.
How the operating model worksFrequently asked questions
Is the configuration chosen according to the load?
Yes. Before a configuration is assigned, the goods, weight, dimensions, origin, destination, date, and any special requirements are reviewed. That information determines the suitable configuration: 1 tonne, 3.5 tonnes, Rabón, or a 53-foot dry van, as a dry box or a flatbed as applicable.
When is a dry box suitable, and when a flatbed?
A dry box protects the goods from rain, dust, wind, and other outside conditions. It suits packed goods, boxes, finished product, and palletized freight. A flatbed makes loading and unloading easier and is used for goods that, because of their dimensions, do not fit a closed box, such as machinery, equipment, or structures. Each load is reviewed before a flatbed is assigned.
What is the exact capacity of each configuration?
Weight capacity, interior dimensions, and pallet count are confirmed for the unit assigned to each job. That is why the weight and dimensions of the load should be included in the quote request.
Do you only use your own units?
CG Logística combines direct operating capacity — units and resources it operates directly — with a carrier network that can join certain jobs according to the type of cargo, availability, capacity, the route, and the configuration required.
