FULL-SERVICE SOLUTIONS

National and Global Shipping Services from Tampa/St. Petersburg

In addition to specialty packaging and crating, Craters & Freighters Tampa/St. Petersburg offers comprehensive global shipping services. From business and residential pickup and delivery to domestic and international shipping, we provide the full spectrum of shipping services.

Are you finding that traditional shippers have weight and size limitations or minimums? We do not. We can ship virtually anything virtually anywhere.

The Secret to Our Success is Inside Our Crates

How do we ensure that the items we ship arrive in exactly the same condition they were in when we got them? It’s all about the tailored packaging and engineering we put into every item we pack. While some shippers simply place items in crates with minimal padding, we give every item the specific packaging and crating solution it calls for.
