Custom Crating for Shipping Fine Art, Chandeliers, Antiques, Sculptures & More

Throughout the past 25 years, the Box Brothers team has perfected the art of custom crate design, allowing us to provide our clients with a truly unique, convenient, and reliable way to safely transport their valuables anywhere in the world. When transporting/shipping high-value items (i.e. fine art, statues, antiques/heirlooms, electronics, porcelain, neon signs, and more) a custom wooden crate provides a higher degree of protection and peace of mind. Our award-winning team of packing experts employs innovative and advanced techniques to construct each crate and pack the item(s) within the crate properly and securely. Each crate is made to order, custom built for our clients according to the specifications of their item(s). Furthermore, item(s) are packaged within the crate, using a variety of high-quality foams and packing supplies. Your custom crate can be shipped anywhere in the world, or even delivered back to your home or business if shipping isn’t required. For your convenience, we offer a storage service for items pending shipping, pick-up, or delivery. We offer a pick-up service, so that you may have your valuables crated and shipped without ever having to leave your home. On-site crating at your home or business is available as well.

    • Ethafoam: A medium-density, anti-static treated foam. Often used to construct in-crate cushioned housing. Useful for electronics & historical item preservation.

    • Polyether / Polyurethane: A softer, spongy-like foam often used in upholstery. This foam is often used to create a “cavity-pack,” which is a perfectly shaped encasing for an item. Used to pack neon signs, fossils, artifacts, etc… Anti-static treated available as well.

    • Item stabilization: Statues, sculptures, porcelain pieces, and other items can be stabilized within the crate to prevent any movement or contact with crate walls.

    • Item suspension: Items can be suspended within the crate to prevent contact with crate bottom. Useful for items like chandeliers.
