South Shore Custom Shipping Crates and Boxes

August 16, 2013 by admin

“When my aunt passed away, it fell to my sister and I to clean out her condo and ship her furniture and belongings to the family members she left them to. What a big job!” Raven said. “We needed a lot of wooden shipping crates and shipping boxes.  At first I thought I could get free boxes from the grocery store, but that didn’t work out so well.”

While it’s ecologically tempting to reuse cardboard boxes for shipping, it’s not a good idea if you want your items to arrive in good condition. “The boxes I got from the grocery were pretty sorry specimens, I have to say,” Raven said. “They weren’t very durable or strong. So I set out looking for the best South Shore shipping boxes.”

Boston Pack and Ship: Your South Shore Source For Shipping Boxes and Custom Shipping Crates

“I didn’t want to spend a ton of money on shipping boxes. Boston Pack and Ship gave me the best price for high quality shipping boxes,” Raven said. “So I picked them as my South Shore shipping box source. This turned out to be a really good decision when we got around to shipping the furniture.”

Raven’s aunt had left antique tables, a book case, and and a very large armchair to be shipped. “You can’t fit this stuff in a shipping box. You need a wooden shipping crate. I thought shipping crates came in standard sizes, but I learned that the best practice is to have wooden shipping crates custom built. That way they’ll fit your furniture perfectly, with just enough space for packing materials. This really cuts down on breakage and damage. Some of my aunt’s furniture isn’t exactly sturdy, you know? It needs protection.”

Custom build wooden shipping crates are built to meet carrier’s standards while making sense for your budget. “If you need custom shipping crates in the South Shore, choose Boston Pack and Ship!”

"My daughter had moved to London and I was shipping her belongings to her: paintings, dishes, silverware, books, etc. I was very concerned about things arriving safely, especially the dishes and other breakable items. We were also concerned about expediting the customs process in London and making sure nothing was lost in a warehouse someplace. With Boston Pack and Ship managing the delivery, everything went extremely well. The people who came to pack were very professional and the people at the company were very knowledgeable about the process, including having contacts in London to get things through the customs process. And everything arrived safely. We couldn’t be more pleased with Boston Pack and Ship’s service."

I used Boston Pack and Ship to send an antique piece of furniture from Boston to Sedona, AZ. I can't say enough about their service and the quality of the packing. Item arrived on the day they said it would and was in pristine condition. Easy to work with and great customer service. Highly recommend.

I hired Boston Pack and Ship to move two items from my storage unit in the Boston area to my home in Florida. Gene Sullivan was 110% responsive. He picked up the items on time, packed them expertly; and they arrived in perfect condition about ten days after pick up. I could not ask for better service. Five stars is not enough!

We at Casey Movers do not hesitate to refer our customers to this business for shipments we do not think we are best suited for (smaller inter-state shipments under 3,000lbs, etc). Have had great feedback from clients that have utilized this service. Thank you from all at Casey Movers for providing top notch service and have a great new year!
