Massachusetts: What’s The Best Way to Ship Electronics?

June 26, 2012 by admin

Choose custom crating for maximum protection when you’re shipping electronics in Massachusetts.

People who try to save money by re-using old boxes to ship electronics often wind up very sad. Why? It’s because old boxes can be structurally compromised, which means they don’t offer the same level of protection to your fragile items. If your package is dropped, knocked, or kicked while it’s in transit, the old box can fail, meaning your item gets damaged.

When you choose custom crating, you get a sturdy cardboard box or wooden shipping crate designed and built specifically for your electronic items. These custom crates are designed to be the optimal size for your items. If a shipping crate is too big, your items can easily shift inside the crate during transit. This causes damage! That’s why custom crates are built to order, just large enough to contain your electronics and the ideal amount of packing material. Smaller electronic items can be sent in custom cardboard shipping boxes, while larger electronics may require the use of a shipping crate.

Be particular about packing material. Newspapers, styrofoam peanuts, and those little bigs of air that come with your latest Amazon purchase just don’t have the robustness necessary to protect your electronics through the shipping process. Your Massachusetts shipping store will talk to you about foam in place technology, an innovative packaging solution that uses expanding foam to form a protective shell around your electronic items. Your electronics are protected against drops, shocks, and moisture!  This shell can be easily removed when your electronic items arrive at their destination.

Document, document, document! Successfully shipping electronics requires clear, legible addresses and the correct completion of freight carrier paperwork. Your Massachusetts shipping store will help you complete this task, as well as fill out any documentation needed for insurance purposes. A range of tracking options provides an extra layer of peace of mind!

"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."

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!
