FAQs about

Crating

What is The Purpose of Crating?

The primary purpose of crating is to provide secure and protective packaging for items during transportation. Crates safeguard against damage, vibrations, and environmental factors, ensuring the safe arrival of items at their destination.

How Do You Choose the Right Size Crate For an Item?

Selecting the right crate size involves accurately measuring the dimensions and weight of the item. By doing so, this ensures the security of the item's weight and preventing movement within the crate while in transit.

What Materials Are Commonly Used to Make Crates?

Common crate materials include wood, plywood, and sometimes metal, depending on the nature of the items being transported. Wood is popular for its strength and durability, offering reliable protection for various items.

Are There Any Special Considerations For Fragile or Valuable Items?

Special considerations include cushioning materials such as foam or bubble wrap for fragile or valuable items. Customized crating solutions may be necessary, incorporating shock-absorbing features to minimize the risk of damage during transit. Barrier bagging is used for overseas transport.  Additionally, labeling and handling procedures are heightened to ensure extra care for these items.
