Boston Laboratory Moves: The Best Way To Ship Scientific and Medical Equipment

July 12, 2012 by admin

We’ve got a question for you: what does all lab equipment have in common?  There are two answers to that question. Scientific and medical equipment is (1) fragile and (2) expensive.  That makes moving a laboratory a precarious proposition. After investing tons of money into your scientific gear, do you really want to take a chance on it getting damaged in transit, lost, or worse?

No, you don’t! That’s why you should choose a moving company that specializes in transporting scientific and medical equipment when you need to relocate your laboratory, R&D facility, or think tank. Boston Pack and Ship is the moving service of choice for R&D facilities, university laboratories, pharmaceutical companies, medical offices, hospitals and similar facilities. We understand how important it is to do the job right – and to get it done fast.  Downtime doesn’t make anyone happy!

Proper packaging is essential to shipping scientific equipment. Our custom crating services provide the ultimate in protection.  Specially designed and built boxes and wooden shipping crates are used to contain, cradle, and protect delicate medical equipment while in transit. From the puniest pipette to the mightiest MRI machine, we move it all. The packing material used inside custom crating is selected to provide the most appropriate protection for your items. Foam in place technology uses a special expanding foam that is piped inside the shipping crate to form a protective shell around your items, protecting them against knocks, drops, moisture and electrical shocks.

Complete tracking and insurance options help provide additional layers of peace of mind while your laboratory is being moved.  We work closely with all of our customers to make sure they’re informed during every step of the process.  We will meet your schedule and deadlines. If you need to ship your scientific or medical equipment internationally, contact us today: we can help make the move easy and efficient!

"In August, my 83-year-old father fell down the cellar stairs and broke his elbow. Following elbow replacement surgery in Boston he was transferred to skilled nursing care in West Bridgewater. Unfortunately, the injury left him unable to maintain his own household. My husband and I made the decision to move him to our home in California. My time frame was incredibly short - 11 days till departure via airplane to CA. I needed to pack and ship whatever items would be going to CA. We would not be moving the entire household - just several paintings, memorabilia, clothing and a large full keyboard electronic piano. After calling several moving companies that required large weight minimums to bid the job, I was referred to Joe Fell at Boston Pack and Ship.

Joe was absolutely wonderful. He calmly explained the shipping options available through Boston Pack and Ship and they could definitely handle the job. Joe helped me locate appropriately sized shipping boxes so that I could pack things up myself, thereby saving money. He also stayed in constant contact with me via phone and email, coaching me through the shipping process. We scheduled pickup nine days after my arrival in MA. Joe became an instant friend to me throughout this extremely stressful time. His caring nature made this difficult move a great deal easier. I am very grateful to have found this wonderful company. "

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!
