Pack & Send is a company new to the UK that just might be able to provide a valuable service to moving companies. Steve Jordan met with Keith Demner from the company’s Milton Keynes office, for a chat.

Pack & Send is part of an Australian franchise that offers a range of International and domestic postal, freight courier, courier packaging and part removal services. The group began trading in the UK in 2009.

 

The company specialises in packing fragile or tricky items that might be beyond the talents of your average moving crew.  If your customers do have treasured items that you feel need a little extra TLC, Pack & Send will be able to help.

 

Keith explained that no two jobs are ever the same yet a large number of assignments involve shipping fragile and valuable antiques.  These items frequently involve a high degree of skill in packaging.

 

“In this business I get the most enjoyment out of coming up with solutions for unusual pack jobs,” explained Keith. “Recently there was a job to transport 15 life size mannequins from deep within the bowels of HMS Belfast in London to America. Each mannequin was very expensive and delicate. They all needed their own individual crate too. The real challenge came about when we realised they all had different poses. Some were sat down, some were pointing fingers, for instance. That was an interesting job accomplished with a much needed degree of skill and attention to detail.”

 

One service offered by Pack & Send is the packing of delicate items using bespoke, reusable expanded foam. The system is quick and effective and provides the best possible protection against shock and vibration.  The Company will collect from anywhere within its catchment area, pack and either ship it direct or deliver it back for inclusion with the main consignment.   

 

Why not give it a try next time you have a customer that demands the best and is prepared to pay a little extra. Pack & Send have outlets throughout the UK.
