Professional experts in crate shipping.

Over the years, we have worked with numerous customers who needed help shipping crates long distances. It was our experience and simple shipping process that made moving Les Paul's First State-of-the-Art Electric Guitars to their destination in the House of Sound at the Discovery World Museum in Wisconsin a huge success.
