Many companies in our industry have weight and size limitations. We do not. Custom packaging, blocking, and bracing are essential to proper crating. These crucial elements ensure your items arrive safe and sound. We can provide that assurance because we do not just place items in a crate or box and add some padding. Every item we handle gets a tailored packaging and crating solution.

Most packing and shipping companies have size and weight restrictions. Not us. We'll crate and ship virtually anything virtually anywhere. At Craters & Freighters, we do not believe in one-size-fits-all crating solutions. The more closely a crate matches the size and shape of an item, the more secure that item will be. Our customers will tell you that our attention to detail is what enables their items to get to their destination safely and free of damage.

For example, we're well-versed in wood packaging restrictions for exports, advanced cargo securement methods, and security requirements for air shipments. While we can quote transportation services only, we have the ability to perform the crating as well. This reduces the risk of damage during transport. And, keep in mind that our volume-based national and international rates make us very competitive with common carriers in terms of price.
