For Boston Pack and Ship, It’s a Matter of Trusts (and Estates)
Boston Pack and Ship specializes in shipments of less than 1,000 pounds, parameters that can cover many of the things found in an estate—e.g. pianos, furniture, antiques, paintings and artwork, glass figures, etc. Part one of the service Boston Pack and Ship offers executors is pickup of items for delivery. Since they’re locally based in Braintree, Mass., Boston Pack and Ship can go to the estate and safely and securely pack all the items for shipping onto their trucks.
“Many people lose sight that shipping an item to somebody across the country or even out of the country is a two-step process: getting it to the shipper and the shipper sending it out. By handling both ends of that process, we save executors a major headache and ensure the safe transport of the item to be delivered,” said Joe Fell, co-owner of Boston Pack and Ship.
To safely ship such a wide range of items, Boston Pack and Ship builds customized packages and crates and employ foam-in-place technology to secure older, more delicate items. Tailoring these containers exactly to the dimensions of the shipment dramatically reduces the possibility of damage during shipping.
“You can get the proper amount of insurance monetarily but we’ve found the best insurance is the packing, especially for those personal, irreplaceable items,” said Fell. “The same guys at Boston Pack and Ship who pick up the items from the estate are the ones creating the customized package for your shipment, so they understand the delicate nature of your shipment and that’s not always the case with other shippers.”
Boston Pack and Ship offers multiple U.S. shipping options including ground and air delivery to a terminal for pickup or inside delivery. International options include air or ocean with door-to-door or door-to-port delivery. Full-declared value is available on both domestic and international shipments. Pick-up of items to be packed and shipped for delivery is made by appointment.
