"Dear Ms. [Member Name Removed], Thank you for your very kind review. We take pride in the quality of our packing, so it pleases us very much to be recognized in that way. Thank you once again for your business!"
My father moved across country and left us with his apartment to clear. We threw everything in boxes and took it to Rick at Craters and Freighters. They meticulously wrapped all the pictures, double packed the computer and accessories and palletized the whole thing in a few days. Rick then arranged to have the pallet shipped from the Washington DC area to San Francisco, which took less than a week. All the goods arrived in perfect condition. We could not be more pleased.

We shipped a large china cabinet from here to Illinois using Craters & Freighters, contact information below. The job involved moving the cabinet from the 2nd floor of our house to the C&F warehouse, crating it (including packing in Styrofoam), shipping, delivering, and uncrating and placing it in the house in Illinois. The cabinet is heavy (100+ pounds) and has large areas of curved glass that are fragile and very expensive to replace. C&F did a terrific job. Rick Davies, our contact, was very helpful and informative, dealing with our many questions and modifications of the job easily. The guys who picked up the cabinet were very considerate and helpful, and did a superb job of getting it into the truck and securing it there. Our cousin in Illinois tells us that the piece arrived in perfect condition. All in all, this was a wonderful experience.
