While standard packing is sufficient for everyday items, some belongings require a higher level of structural security. At Relocate Mee, our Custom Crating Service is designed for items that are too heavy, too fragile, or too valuable for traditional cardboard boxes. We combine engineering precision with white-glove care to ensure your most prized possessions are immobilized and shielded against every variable of the journey.
Standard boxes can crush under pressure, but our custom-built timber crates are engineered to withstand the rigours of transit. We don’t believe in “one size fits all.” Our team conducts precise measurements of your high-value items—whether it’s a grand piano, a delicate chandelier, or industrial machinery—to build a crate specifically for that object.
Using heat-treated, ISPM-15 certified wood (suitable for international shipping), we construct a rigid outer shell that provides a fortress of protection. This heavy-duty exterior prevents external impacts and stacking pressures from ever reaching your item, ensuring it remains in a static, controlled environment from your old doorstep to your new one.
The secret to successful crating isn’t just the wooden exterior; it’s what happens on the inside. We utilize a “float-pack” system, where your item is suspended within the crate using a variety of high-density foams, custom bracing, and vibration-dampening materials. This interior architecture is designed to absorb the shocks and vibrations of the road or sea.
For sensitive electronics or fine art, we incorporate moisture barriers and non-abrasive linings to protect delicate finishes from humidity or scratches. By neutralizing movement within the crate, we eliminate the risk of internal collisions, ensuring that even the most intricate sculptures or complex glasswork arrive in pristine condition.
Crating is the ultimate solution for peace of mind when moving assets that are irreplaceable. Our specialized team is trained in the heavy-lift techniques required to move these crates safely. We utilize professional equipment—including hydraulic lifts and heavy-duty dollies—to manage the weight of timber crates without risking damage to your flooring or property.
Every crate is integrated into our detailed inventory system, allowing for clear tracking and simplified insurance valuations. Whether you are moving a single antique across London or a collection of fine art across the globe, our crating service provides a level of security that standard moving services simply cannot match. Trust Relocate Mee to handle the heavy lifting, so you don’t have to.
Our timber meets all international export standards (ISPM-15).
