Specialized Crating and Shipping Support

Some items require more protection than moving blankets and cardboard boxes can provide. SD Moving Services offers residential and commercial crating and shipping services for belongings that are fragile, valuable, oversized, or difficult to handle.

Our team can help protect items such as glass, marble, and large artwork while coordinating the receiving, inspection, handling, and delivery process.

Our Crating and Shipping Services

 

Onsite Crating

 

When an item requires additional protection, we can provide onsite crating based on its size, weight, shape, and handling requirements. This is especially helpful for large or delicate pieces that should not be transported with standard packing alone.

Crating for Fragile and Oversized Items

We provide added protection for items including:

  • Glass
  • Marble
  • Large artwork
  • Other valuable or difficult-to-handle pieces

Before the job, we review the item and access conditions so the appropriate handling and protection can be planned.

Shipping Support

Our team can prepare crated items for transportation and help coordinate the movement of residential, commercial, and specialty items. Each project is reviewed individually based on the item, pickup location, destination, and level of protection required.

Receiving and Inspection

Large furniture, artwork, and online purchases are not always practical to receive at a home or business. Our receiving warehouse can accept qualifying shipments, inspect the items, and hold them until delivery can be arranged.

Delivery to Your Home or Business

Once your items are ready, we can coordinate delivery to the final location. Our movers carefully handle the items during transportation and placement, helping simplify the process from receiving through final delivery.

Crating Services for Residential and Commercial Projects

Our crating, receiving, and delivery services can support:

  • Homeowners moving valuable or fragile belongings
  • Businesses relocating equipment or specialty items
  • Customers receiving oversized online orders
  • Interior designers coordinating furniture and artwork
  • Properties receiving marble, glass, or decorative pieces
  • Projects requiring temporary receiving before delivery

Whether you need one item protected or support for a larger project, we can discuss the details and recommend an appropriate approach.
