When Choosing a MA Packaging Company Makes Sense

May 20, 2016 by admin

Small manufacturers, this one’s for you. If you’re struggling to figure out the fastest, most cost-effective method to take your product from the assembly line to store shelves near you, it’s time to talk packaging. Many organizations just don’t have the specialized equipment it takes to package their merchandise, or the manpower to devote to the job. We all know labor’s not cheap and the thought of adding one or more employees to your team to handle packaging your products can be a scarily expensive proposition.

To be a successful small company, you have to be agile, and that means, no pun intended, thinking outside of the box. Rather than trying to handle all of your packaging needs yourselves, consider working with a third party vendor. A professional packaging company in MA will offer a range of services, including shrink wrapping, poly bagging, blister packaging, clamshell packaging, and more. If you need to package your products to meet the needs of a specific retailer, such as a big box or club shopping store, your MA packaging company can do that for you.

You’ll want to look at the numbers. Talk to the MA packaging company you’re considering working with, and find out how much you can expect for their experienced team to handle the job on a recurring basis. Compare those figures to what you’ll need to spend investing in packaging equipment, consumable supplies (such as shrink wrap film), space to house your packaging department, employees to package your products, and benefits and taxes for those employees. If you’re having difficulty making this calculation, look to your accountant, financial adviser, or other resources, such as your local small business development center, to help you make a sensible decision. There’s no one size fits all answers: a lot depends on the size of your operation, what assets you currently have available to you, and your experience packaging products so they can stand up to shipping, meet retailer’s requirements, and be attractive to customers.

If you’d like to find out what it would cost to have your products packaged here in MA, give us a call. We’d be happy to talk with you and answer all of your questions!

"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!
