A very efficient way to protect goods from damage is a padded shroud which can be wrapped around an item in seconds and removed just as quickly. It can be re-used 100s or even 1000s of times.
Types
For Regular Shapes
A simple wrap-around padded shroud will protect regular-shaped goods in transit, such as white goods and high value goods such as an antique chests of drawers or delicate electronic goods.
These shrouds simply wrap-around and stay in place using Velcro. They can be put on and taken off objects in a few seconds. They only protect the sides of goods and not the top or bottom.
They are off-the-peg and are readily available here at packsource
For Irregular Shapes
Some items that need protection can have irregular shapes, such as a musical instrument (e.g. a piano). These need to be made-to-measure and therefore can take 2 to 3 weeks to produce (the protective shroud for regular shapes is available within 2 to 3 days from order).
Rental or Purchase?
If you regularly move goods that require this kind of protection, you may wish to consider purchasing them. If you only need them for a single move or just a short while, you will probably be better off renting them. Please contact us for rental costs.
