ON GROUND SERVICES

At event sites and team locations, extend your capabilities with GAC Pindar On Ground Services; from storage requirements and equipment rental, lash-and-load, receiving and grounding of your freight, our trained staff are on hand to complete your logistics journey.

On-the-Ground Team

Members of the GAC Pindar on-the-ground team have earned a reputation as logistics ‘genies’ in the event world; meeting tight schedules, delivering event infrastructures to site, sometimes seemingly unseen at night, our ‘container fairies’ have been tried and tested by the most complex multi-staged global events.

Select your requirements to complement your own team strengths, from site surveys and marking out, grounding, levelling and positioning of containers straight from truck; the lash and loading of goods, including Dangerous Goods (DG) labelling and pre-transport checks, through to providing customer approved condition reports on loading and discharge.

Experts at handling high value items like clay model and prototype cars, our on-the-ground team are trusted repeatedly by top manufacturers and industry leaders alike.

Container Services

With GAC’s own container modifications company, GAC Pindar can provide solutions to meet your exact requirements, along with container rental options for short term needs. Where necessary, we will provide certification (CSC plating) advice and source authorised personnel wherever your container is located, maintaining its licence period while it is in transit.

Equipment Rental

GAC Pindar works with many Material Handling Equipment (MHE) providers globally, and sources equipment from those which are renowned for reliability of service, choice and availability of machinery and a solid track record of emergency response. Lifting and positioning equipment as well as mobile elevated work platforms can be delivered to your location for bespoke time periods.

Storage & Warehousing

Utilising the 300+ global GAC office locations, we provide both temporary and long term storage and warehousing solutions specific to your requirements; from short term situations before an event, or options for the strategic location of crucial spare parts, to whole infrastructures needing long term storage, we will provide answers that fit your needs and budget.

8th Dimension Performance Sailing

“I set high targets with our project to have eight Dragons sailing around Europe for charters, clinics and private events. For us, the fact that we could count on GAC Pindar’s experience and capacity to start moving our boats was a key element and allowed us to focus on the commercial and financial side of our start-up company. The process of delivering our boats from the UK to Portugal was very smooth and accurate, allowing us to start with our schedule with no issues. We are looking forward to continuing to work with GAC Pindar in the years to come and provide quality sailing to the lovers of our sport.”
