When moving your prize possessions from here in the UK to your chosen destination overseas it is sometimes recommended that these items are placed in a wooden crate

Crates of all shapes and sizes 

Bespoke crates can be made to house even the most difficult shapes, and Appleyards of Hull can assist and provide the crate to be available and ready for the goods to be loaded into on site on the day we collect your goods for shipment.

Treated (heat sealed) wood is very important when crating items for overseas shipment  and why its best left to a professional removal firm to supply the timber and crate the goods .  All treated wood when shipping to such places as Australia, and America must have the ISPM 15 stamp to certify that the crate meets the requirements before they can be loaded here in the UK

Popular Items to Crate 

The most popular items that we crate are Motorbikes, pianos, grandfather clocks and original artwork. Crating items for overseas shipment can be made simple and a cost provided along with your original shipment cost, so it’s always worth mentioning any fragile or sentimental goods that you would like special care whilst our surveyor is at your property
