The wonderful thing about shipping using wooden crates is how customizable they are for anything you need crating, even a motorcycle!
There are two different types of crates: reusable and one-time use. Here at Industrial Crating Pack & Services, we provide both options. Our one-time-use crates are durable for the heaviest of equipment and can be custom-made to comply with industry regulation needs. They are ideal to protect items from shocks & moisture when shipping internationally. Reusable crates are suitable for products and items that need to be shipped multiple times to multiple places and can be easily disassembled and reassembled using the proper latches and interior systems that lock items and crates into place. They also allow for items to be easily stored when they are not in use. We can have both types made shock-resistant, heat-treated, 2-way, or 4-way fork-able. Along with customizing any exterior or interior needs specific to each situation.
Benefits of Custom Crates
Custom crating can be very beneficial, especially in specific industries or circumstances, when trying to ship awkwardly shaped items. There are many benefits to getting items in custom crzates, such as custom sizes, damage prevention, and cost efficiency.
Custom crate size for your item.
Having crates be customized in size is very important when shipping an item. It will decrease the risk of any damage being done to your item, especially in the case of larger items. Customizing the size of a crate to your item is also beneficial if your item is of an unusual shape, such as some furniture, sculptures, or even a motorcycle!
Protect your item when shipping.
When shipping anything, protecting your item is essential to have in a crate. Customization can ensure the highest protection for the item being shipped. Crates can be made with padding (foam, paper wrap, plastic wrap, shock resistant, etc.) and can be banded appropriately to ensure no movement of your item will happen during shipping. Crates can also help prevent any moisture damage from temperature changes during shipping. This is important in fields such as sound equipment or medical equipment. At Industrial Crating Pack & Services, we can meet all standards and regulations to comply with the medical sector for transporting equipment and products. We can assist and suggest solutions for the best ways to prevent damage to your product when shipping and can take these variables into account during the production of your custom crate.
Custom crates are cost-efficient.
Lastly, custom crating can be cost-efficient, even though it may seem expensive initially, it pays for itself in the long haul. Not only can custom crates be reused and last longer than other options, but you will also not be forced to keep spending money on additional crating solutions. They will also help with storage costs, being that they can be stacked efficiently, reducing storage space during transportation.
So, the next time you need to ship or transport an oddly shaped item or delicate but large and heavy item, think of getting it custom crated. It will be best for you and your item, in the end!
