Crate expectations – Crating Services Now Offered
By Humboldt Storage and Moving, Canton, Mass.

DATELINE CANTON, MASS. ISSUED FEB. 19, 2003…
Abe Bryant had to wait 25 years. After all, his predecessor had been on the job for 52. But for the past 18 years, Bryant has assumed the mantle of master crate maker for Humboldt Storage and Moving, Greater Boston's largest United Van Lines agent and based in Canton, Mass. Now Humboldt offers custom crate making to all its clients.

"The demand for crates is bigger now," the 43-year Humboldt employee said. "High-end homes require high-end moving, whether around the country or overseas."

Bryant and his assistant Bob Gray build custom-designed crates from solid heat-treated wood and plywood - no slats for them. And they'll go onsite to personally pack the precious cargo - right down to screwing on the covers.

Bryant builds his crates oversized, then packs the items in the right kind of protective insulation, such as dolphin foam. Your antique armoire, valuable painting or grand piano will arrive at its destination intact. Want to move an expensive chandelier? Bryant will suspend it from the crate's cover and fill the crate with protective foam to ensure its safe arrival. "I can't remember the last time we ever had a claim," he said.

Professional packing is Humboldt's business, whether it's a museum art treasure, delicate commercial equipment, or your family's favorite furniture. The movers at Humboldt consider packing and crating both an art and a science. They combine their knowledge of the fragility of hundreds of items with tremendous care and the latest packing materials to move your items intact anywhere in the world.

For do-it-yourselfers, Humboldt will teach you how to pack your precious household goods. Humboldt can supply you with new and recycled boxes and the latest in packing supplies. And Humboldt experts will step in to pack just those special items for you.
