Sheet metal transport and unloading
Transporting roofing sheets requires vehicles with beds adapted to the length of the metal sheets. Sheets must be tightly secured to protect their surfaces from abrasions. The best unloading method is using forklifts or lifting slings. iCaro Logistics is equipped with the professional tools and devices needed to handle this process.
If unloading is done manually, it is crucial to lift sheets in a vertical position and with enough personnel. Avoid dragging or bending the sheets. Lift them at the stiffest points — typically near the ridges.
Safe transport of sheet metal in sheets
You can entrust us with your materials with complete confidence. Whether the sheets are flat or specially secured, we will deliver them quickly and on time.
Once your order is accepted, we guarantee your shipment will reach its destination intact. As a professional freight forwarding company, we take full responsibility for the safety of your goods. Our OCS forwarder insurance policy covers up to €300,000. Every shipment is thoroughly secured.
Transporting coiled metal sheets — whether horizontally or vertically — usually involves special grips or clamps. Some attach from the inside of the coil, while others have footplates to lift horizontal coils. High-quality grips ensure safe handling during loading, production, or storage.
Transport of sheet metal coils often requires specialized “MEGA” tractor-trailers with custom trailers. These are equipped with the highest-standard load securing systems, such as Multi Lock, and troughs that properly support and protect the coils.
Metal roof tiles are usually delivered using open platform trucks, which make loading and unloading easier. However, proper protection against adverse weather conditions during transit is essential.
Our vehicles are equipped with GPS tracking, so you can monitor your shipment at any time. You’ll also have access to dedicated consultants available 24/7, including weekends and holidays.

Cost-effective sheet metal warehousing
We also offer sheet metal storage at attractive rates. When storing sheets, it’s important to remove protective foil (if present) and place them on supports (minimum 20 cm from the ground) at a slight angle. Use separators between individual sheets.
Choose an appropriate indoor facility – dry, temperature-controlled, and free from moisture. Do not store metal sheets near fertilizers, acids, or other corrosive substances.
Use dry wooden spacers to ensure air circulation between stored sheets. If sheets become wet, immediately remove any protective foil.
Failure to meet these conditions may void product warranties or shorten the lifespan of materials. The maximum storage duration before installation may vary depending on the product. Always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific material. For example, galvanized sheets should be additionally protected with preservative oil.
