Located in Holbrook Massachusetts, the team at Crate This works with businesses throughout the Northeast to help with shipping, storage, and of course crating. We specialize in creating custom crating and packaging for goods. This includes hard to ship goods like fragile art, electronics, or heavy/large shipments that will not fit in a traditional container. Whatever your shipping project is, we can help. Not only can you work with us for crating services but we can keep your packaged goods in our storage facility until you are ready to ship it. In fact we can even help you with international or domestic shipping. From packing your goods to get them on the ocean, air, or land freight, we are here to help you with your shipping goals.
It cannot be understated how valuable custom crating is for companies of all sizes. If you are shipping something fragile, unique, or expensive, you should not risk one-size-fits-most shipping options. Custom crating is built to the dimensions of your shipment, and materials are used to provide extra layers of protection. Straps and foam padding will protect your goods from shifting and impact damage. Vapor barrier protection can protect electronics and machinery from water damage caused by air moisture in transit. And heat shrink wrapping can add even more protection against dirt and other particles in the air.
We specialize in hard to ship projects. When someone calls us with a project that is especially hard, we are here to help. This includes creating the perfect crating solutions for goods that are too big to fit in a shipping container. If your shipment can’t be in a standard shipping container, you are going to want specialized packaging that meets all regulations and can properly protect your packages as they travel domestically or internationally. For more information on out of gauge crating and packing services, please give us a call or visit our OOG page to learn more about these shipping services.

When crating any large or heavy machinery it is often necessary to create specialized crating that can protect it. Not only do you need to protect the machinery from impact damage, but you also need to consider vapor barrier protection as well. We provide a variety of packing materials designed to protect heavy machinery.
The Crate This team provides shipping and crating services for fragile goods such as art, furniture, and sculptures. These goods often require specially padding and strapping to ensure that they are unable to shift during transit. Additionally special materials are used to prevent damage caused by dust/dirt and water moisture.
Various electronic devices are packaged with vapor barrier protective shipping materials designed to eliminate the risk of damage caused by moisture. Ocean freight is a large contributor to increased air moisture that can cause problems for electronic devices. Our team ensures that electronic devices are not damaged as they travel overseas.
