Boxes, Cases & Crates

As experts in the packing and shipping of art, antiques, and collectables in our experience there are certain items that should be packed in a wooden crate or case in order to withstand the rigors of the freight environment. Our highly trained UK staff will be able to advise on whether we recommend this for your item.

At PACK & SEND in the UK we specialise in building tailor made wooden crates using either Medium Density Fibreboard, Plywood or Oriented Strand Board depending upon the nature of the item, its destination, and the freight environment it is to be shipped in.

This protection can give you peace-of-mind when shipping highly fragile, large, awkward or valuable works of art, antiques or collectables as wooden crates provide not only additional protection from compaction but also give rigidity to larger items of framed artwork or fragile pieces of art or antiques.

We also have a large range of corrugated cartons and boxes on hand of varying board strengths to meet the packaging and protection needs of your item whilst in transit. If we don't have the packing box on hand to suit your job, we'll custom-make one. We have the expertise to make a one-off corrugated carton or box to a specified size and strength. All our cartons are glued and taped at the seams to provide additional strength in the freight environment during shipping.
