Pack n send builds custom crates for both commercial and residential customers. While we crate art work and sculptures, we can also crate your delicate machinery. We are posting this quick video of a very simple crate for artwork.
Since we have been in business since 1981 we can offer advice on how to prepare items to be placed inside a crate, and the best way to build a crate.
There are some very basic questions you need to ask before you contract someone to build a crate.
You need to ask if they can supply the wood for both domestic and international shipping.
Can they build reusable crates?
Do they have experience with both large and small items?.
Have they crated delicate or valuable items in the past? Be sure and ask for examples of these items.
Do they know the proper amount of padding to add inside the crate for different types of items. High value painting with glass require different preparation and padding from artistic statutes.
How do they bind the crate? Do they nail it or use screws to close the crate? Do they secure the crate with metal banding?
