Altivex 736 (Pty) Ltd was founded due to the high demand of clients requiring the specialized services of a company that understands the Abnormal Transport market. We have combined skills that include marine surveying, abnormal transport and clearing and forwarding. We have since evolved into the normal transport market and also handle Dangerous Goods. We also specialize in Project Management over Africa.
