When you need to ship medical equipment look for a company that has experience packing and shipping high value and delicate items.
Seek out a firm that ships for doctors offices, universities, hospitals and medical centers. Ask if they can box, crate or even wrap and palletize the shipment.
Do they have the capability to value your equipment for pick up and delivery? Have they asked you if the equipment can be taken apart for less expensive shipping, or does it need to be kept completely set up and ready to use? If the equipment can only be moved as a whole piece, can the company you choose send it in a truck for you?
Due to the delicate and expensive nature of medical equipment, care must be taken when choosing a shipper.
Some of the more commonly shipped pieces of medical equipment that are shipped are:
high value diagnostic equipment
autoclaves
microscopes
physical therapy equipment
Ask if the company can box, crate and freight medical equipment. Since each piece of medical equipment is handled differently, the company will need to look at each piece individually. There may need to be protection on the lenses, arms, or feet of the equipment.
If you need to ship the medical equipment internationally, you will need to make sure that company you choose has experience with international shipping.
