Shipping crates are how we protect and transport goods from our warehouse for long haul, out of state or international shipping. We also use them to store items, household goods and equipment for clients. Clients may need to store items before transfering it to a new home or until they are leaving the country or many other reasons. Others may have crates stored as a waypoint for further shipping by a frieght forwarder to another destination.
The processing of the shipping crates
Wood for crates are typically purchased and put together from large moving van lines such as North American or Mayflower for example. Shipping crates are filled with items and shipped for client needs. This makes for a large flow of crates that are reused and recycled for further use in shipping and recieving.
Here is how the process works at Worldwide !
1. We either are shipping or recieving crates at warehouse from all over the world and shipping to all over the world.
Truck loading and unloading
2.Crates that are emptied here at the ware house because it is being moved to a home or office or other reason, are then stored outside of our warehouse.
Staging area outside the warehouse
3.Crates are then repaired or we build out specialty crates for shipment.

5.Because crates are owned by larger companies they may request some back.Therefore, a percentage of crates are knocked down, stored so they are ready for shipment back to the main moving van line to be put back together for reuse.

6.Crates that are weather worn,extensively damaged and overused are shipped out on one of our trucks to be sent to a processing center.

We had an excellent experience with Worldwide Moving moving our items from storage to our new home! Truck was on time, employees were courteous, friendly and moved our belongings carefully and quickly. Truck was clean, and the truck driver was cautious. Price was competitive. We would definitely recommend Worldwide Moving!

The crew of four gentleman for our local move were AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING!!! We had a full 3 bedroom home to load and unload in the same day. They were incredibly careful and efficient. It really helped take much of the stress of moving out of the equation. I can't thank them enough! I hope we never have to move again, but if we do, I'm going with Worldwide.

Due to another moving company cancelling my move last minute, I scheduled with Worldwide Moving Systems. The move went without incident, and the movers were nice and professional. They were even able to move my dresser easily down the stairs without issue -- the movers who had moved my dresser in were unable to achieve this and had hoisted the dresser up the balcony.
