JUN 22, 2025
Packaging is a critical factor in shipping goods. Choosing the right packaging helps reduce issues during transportation and ensures that the products reach their destination safely. One popular option is the use of wooden crates. This article will help clarify what wooden crates are, along with their advantages and disadvantages.
Types of wooden crates:
1. Solid wooden crates:
These are used for goods that require the highest safety during transport. Additionally, they can be used to bundle smaller items together to reduce the risk of loss. Service charge: 1,500 - 2,500 baht per cubic meter.
2. Ventilated wooden crates:
These are suitable for large, heavy items to reduce packaging costs. It is another option for those wanting to ship large goods. Service charge: 1,200 - 2,000 baht per cubic meter.
3. Pallets:
Our pallets come in both wood and plastic types. They are generally used for storing/stacking packages and moving the goods by placing them on the pallet base for easier stacking and helping to consolidate smaller packages. Service charge: 1,000 - 2,000 baht.
Advantages of wooden crates:
They are strong, durable, moisture-resistant, and weather-resistant. They can bear more weight without losing their shape, unlike cardboard boxes. They are suitable for heavy goods, can be stacked, and are resistant to moisture. They can be custom-made to fit the shape and size of the goods. They have a long lifespan and can be reused.
Disadvantages of wooden crates:
They require storage space when not in use, they must be fumigated before being shipped internationally, and they are more expensive than cardboard boxes. Custom-made wooden crates may not be reusable.
