Cross Country Shipping Large Items Doesn’t Have to Be Complicated

April 20, 2020 by admin

“Everything’s different right now,” Steven said. “Normally, a machine like this breaks, they order another one from China, no big deal. But now you can order that machine from China all you want – who knows when it’s going to get here? They can’t wait. You’ve got to do some creative thinking. The machine breaks in California, we’ve got one maybe we’re not using as much over here in Boston, we’ll just ship it cross-country and put it into production where it makes the most sense.”

He laughed. “And guess who they put in charge of coordinating that? Yours truly. Guess what? I have no idea how you ship a 22,000 pound piece of machinery. I asked our regular delivery guy, and he laughed at me. “Good luck with that”, he said. So here I am at Boston Pack and Ship, because I need expert assistance.”

And of course, our team will be happy to help you with all of the documentation and insurance paperwork that comes with shipping large, valuable items.

"I'm in the military and I took an assignment in Texas to be closer to family in a town outside of Houston. That meant getting about 17 boxes of stuff—ranging from household goods to clothing—from my home in Marston Mills, Massachusetts to Missouri City, Texas. Working with Boston Pack and Ship was a pleasure. They were very helpful and answered all my questions. On the day of pickup, they were in and out within 15 minutes. I had regular updates from Bill Yankee and his staff. In fact, my stuff arrived a day early! Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I didn't have to worry about a thing."
