Smart Hub Aviation’s Cargo Ground Handling Services
1. Cargo Unloading from Aircraft
- Initial Receipt and Inspection: Upon aircraft landing, SHA’s team coordinates with operations control to receive cargo, inspecting the condition of seals, security tapes, and accompanying documents.
- Specialized Loading/Unloading: Using forklifts, conveyors, pallet dollies, and IATA-standard support equipment, SHA ensures swift, precise handling while minimizing vibration for fragile or sensitive goods.
- Special Cargo Handling: For Dangerous Goods (DG), oversized shipments, or perishables, SHA deploys a dedicated handling team that strictly follows safety standards and specialized procedures.
Example: A shipment of medical equipment requiring cold storage is unloaded by SHA within 15 minutes of opening the cargo hold and transferred immediately to a temperature-controlled warehouse to maintain product quality.
