Everyone knows that moving can be a serious headache, especially when you’re worried about getting your valuable goods to their destination safely. When it comes to framed artwork, it’s essential to pack extremely carefully to ensure that both the frame and the art itself doesn’t become damaged in transit. At Extreme Packing Solutions, we offer our clients custom packaging and shipping for art, antiques, and other high-value goods!

DIY Artwork Moving Tips

If you opt to move your framed art and other fragile valuables on your own, there are several things you can do to increase the chances of them arriving at their destination safely. The first thing you should do when packing up artwork for a move is to wrap it, frame and all, in non-acidic paper. Next, wrap the art in copious amounts of bubble wrap and secure it with tape. Be sure not to tape it so tightly that it can damage the art or the frame! Finally, put the bubble-wrapped artwork in a snug box that’s labeled as “fragile”, and be sure to secure it tightly in whatever moving vehicle you’re using.

Custom Packaging

The very best way to ensure that your fine art arrives at its destination safely is use a custom packaging service like we provide at Extreme Packing Solutions! At Extreme Packing solutions, one of our specialties is creating custom packaging for fine art, antiques, electronic equipment, and other high value fragile items. We’ll help you select the custom packaging option that’s right for your art or other high value item and handle all the shipping hassles.

Electronics have the potential to become damaged during shipment, resulting in unexpected financial loss, time, and frustration. When shipping valuable packages, including computers and electronics, it is important to ship them correctly to prevent damages. There are several things that must be done, including proper labeling and packaging to protect these products. The following information was created to help individuals who are sending packages containing electronics and other valuables. We will explore how to label and package these items to ensure that they arrive safely. 

Protect Electronic Batteries 

The majority of electronic devices contain lithium-ion batteries. These rechargeable cells require extra precautions when shipping because they are more powerful than other types of batteries.  

You can protect these packages with several tips, including: 

• Don’t Disconnect Removable Batteries  
• Cover and Secure Power Buttons to Avoid Accidental Turn-On of Devices 
• Place Device Inside Plastic to Avoid Static Electricity 

Lithium-ion batteries are at a higher risk of damages resulting from heat and static electricity. Heat and static put these devices at a risk of short circuiting and/or potentially catching fire. 

Proper Packaging  

Choose a sturdy box that is larger than the item you are shipping and wrap it in bubble wrap and tape. You should then utilize another box, placing the first box inside another, to sufficiently protect items. You should place layers of padding inside both boxes to minimize the vibration during transit. Pack the box as tightly as you can, using bubble wrap, foam, and packaging tape. 

Note: Do not use polystyrene, also known as packing peanuts, these increase the risk of static electricity. 

You must also be sure to label your package accordingly. Those who are transporting it should be warned that the contents are fragile. 

Proper packaging and labeling have the potential to guarantee that your products will arrive in the manner in which you intended.

Custom crating or packing is the very best way to ensure that your valuable items arrive at their destination safe and sound. At Extreme Packing Solutions, our custom packing process starts with a review of your items where we’ll make precise measurements so that we can begin to create the custom packaging. The type of packing used for your items depends on the size and type of goods – we’ll either make a custom fitted wooden crate for large items or a custom fitted box for smaller things. For items that require boxes, our software allows us to create custom-sized cardboard boxes that have double or triple corrugated walls which provides maximum protection of that item. Once the custom packaging is created, we will both pack and ship your goods using our trusted carriers. Our team of packing and shipping experts will help you figure out which method of shipping is the safest and most cost effective for your item or items – by land, sea, or air. To give you even more piece of mind, all items that are packed and shipped by our team at Extreme Packing Solutions are fully insured so you can have the utmost confidence when you choose to ship your items with us!

A common aspect of freight shipping is the use of pallets for packing and securing different goods but also enhances efficiency and use of space. The ultimate goal is protection through transit up until the product reaches its final destination. You can have custom-made pallets to meet your unique needs but there is also standard pallet size and weight for the most common freight packaging service. Do you know what the standard pallet size and weight are? This bit of information could help you get an accurate quote and make shipping an easier process. 

Pallet Dimensions

The three popular pallet sizes are: 

• 48” x 40”
• 42” x 42”
• 48” x 48”

Roughly 30% of the pallets produced yearly in the U.S. are 48” X 40” pallets, also called GMA pallets (Grocers Manufacturers Association). This is considered North America’s standard pallet size dimension, which has been a popular palette option since the 1960s. This pallet dimension is also on the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) approved standard pallet size list. The 48” X 40” pallet’s deck boards each are 3 ½” wide, 5/16″ thick, and 6 ½” tall.

The type of product being shipped is usually the determinant when it comes to the size pallet used. The standard pallet size of 48″ x 40″ is commonly used for produce and grocery products and can hold roughly up to 4,600 lbs. The pallet size 42″ x 42” is commonly used to ship products such as paints and telecommunication equipment, and holds roughly 3,700 lbs. Pallet size 48” x 48” is commonly used to pack larger containers like drums and barrels holding liquids, such as oil, and support roughly 3,700 lbs.

These are just the most popular pallet sizes, but there are many other pallet size options out there. Communicate with your shipper or supplier regarding the exact pallet size to prevent misunderstandings and delays. Be sure to first refer to the length and then the width of a pallet when asking or sharing about pallet dimensions.

Pallet Weight

The weight of a pallet is determined by the size of the pallet and the material (plastic or wood, metal) that the pallet is produced from. In general, the standard pallet weighs between 30 to 48 1bs. Remember to include the pallet’s weight and dimensions when getting a shipping quote.
