Our boxes are constructed in a neat and orderly fashion with a high regard to detail (i.e. square cuts, flush corners, symmetrical appearance, neat and accurate markings, etc.)

The manner in which the sides, ends, floor, and top are secured to one another gives optimum strength to the entire package. These boxes are able to withstand a stacked weight on top of one another greater than the individual packed gross weight of each box.

Each piece/type of equipment is packaged in an adequate manner for its intended mode of transporation with a great deal of attention given to floor bearing weight, lifting/slinging areas, protection of critical/fragile areas, and sufficient cushioning/bracing required for safe transport.
