Equipment with installed batteries

Equipment with installed batteries covers products that arrive with the battery already fitted, such as laptops, power tools, medical devices and light electric vehicles.

The built-in battery changes how the shipment is categorised: the item stops being treated purely as equipment and starts to account for the energy it carries inside. Conditions are usually different from those applied to a standalone cell, and state of charge, capacity and how the battery is secured influence what is accepted.

AVM Cargo reviews the cargo information, such as battery type and capacity, state of charge and technical classification, coordinates the partners involved, follows the shipment and keeps the client informed throughout the process. Each operation is assessed individually according to the characteristics of the goods, origin, destination and shipping conditions, and our team advises on the information needed to make the quotation and the operation viable.
