Crated with Care - Custom Protection for Your Valuables During Transit

FAQs

  • What items typically require crating services?

    Items that are particularly fragile, valuable, or uniquely shaped often require the additional protection that crating provides. This includes artwork, antiques, large mirrors, glass tabletops, chandeliers, statues, and sensitive electronics. 


    Our crating service is designed to cater to items that need more than just standard packing due to their high risk of damage during transit. By creating a custom wooden crate around these items, we ensure they are securely encased and cushioned, significantly reducing the risk of breakage or wear.

  • How do you determine the need for a crate versus standard packing?

    The need for a crate is determined by assessing the item's fragility, value, size, and shape. Our experienced team will evaluate your belongings and recommend crating for items that are deemed too delicate or valuable to be safely transported with standard packing methods. 


    We consider factors such as the item's susceptibility to damage from vibrations, shocks, and pressure changes that can occur during transit. If an item is at risk without the added protection of a crate, we will advise using our crating service.

  • How is the cost of crating services determined?

    The cost of our crating services is determined by several factors, including the size and complexity of the crate needed, the type and amount of cushioning materials required, and the time it takes to build and pack the crate. 


    We provide a detailed quote based on these factors after conducting an assessment of the items you need to be crated. Our goal is to offer transparent pricing that reflects the custom nature of the service while ensuring the highest level of protection for your items during their move.
