Secure Packaging & Holding

Packing & Storage for Long-Distance Moves

Long journeys mean extra vibrations and potential movements in the truck. We offer heavy-duty packing supplies and secure climate-controlled Storage-in-Transit (SIT) options to handle any delays.

Custom Wood Crating

We build robust, custom-sized wooden crates for high-value antiques, grandfather clocks, oil paintings, glass table tops, and fragile electronics.

Storage-in-Transit (SIT)

If your closing date is delayed or your new house isn't ready, our secure, climate-controlled warehouses will store your items safely.

Double-Walled Packing

We use heavy-duty double-walled moving boxes, double layers of bubble wrap, and specialized padding for high-mileage trips.

Exclusive Transport Option

Dedicated Exclusive Trucks

With our dedicated truck option, your belongings are the only items loaded onto the semi-trailer. This offers a highly secure, fast service that bypasses consolidated hubs.

  • Zero Consolidated Cargo: No mixing with other families' items.
  • Express Delivery Times: Direct transport from pickup to delivery.
  • Reduced Risk: Minimal offloading/handling, reducing chances of damage.

Dedicated vs Consolidated

If you are working with a tight budget and flexible dates, you can choose consolidated load sharing (LTL) where you only pay for the exact volume your items occupy in the truck.
