Strong Shipping Crates Save the Day for Boston Family

January 20, 2017 by admin

"Our daughter Marie moved to Santa Fe years ago," Paula said. "But if you have adult children, you know how that goes: the kids move out, but their stuff stays with you. That was fine while we lived in Ipswich, where our home was larger. But now that it's just Bobby and I, we're downsizing. If Paula wanted to keep these things, they needed to live with her. We looked into many options to transport … [Read more...]

"My mother was living in a retirement community in Massachusetts. After she passed, there were three groups of items that needed to go to three different locations. One of those groups contained a large china cabinet. This had much sentimental value for me but it needed refinishing before having it shipped to my home in Virginia. I was referred to Boston Pack and Ship. They advised me to ship it directly to a refinisher to save me from having to move the cabinet one more time. Boston Pack and Ship stored the china cabinet while I searched for a refinisher near my home. Long story short, I found a refinisher here in Virginia and Boston Pack and Ship prepared the china cabinet for delivery. It arrived safe and sound to the refinisher on schedule who said it was ‘beautifully wrapped and protected'. I can't thank Bill and Boston Pack and Ship enough for their help in getting my china cabinet to me safely. Most importantly, they were caring and patient at a difficult time in my life."
