Wooden shipping crates should align with the weight, size, and fragility of your product while meeting transport and compliance requirements. Litco designs crates to lower freight costs, ensure compliance, and protect high-value goods.
Choosing the right crate depends on whether you need export compliance, knock-down efficiency, or specialized supports for fragile products. Litco engineers each crate to your exact specifications, ensuring cost efficiency and safe delivery across the supply chain.

Yes. Most countries require ISPM-15 certified wood packaging for import, and non-compliance can cause delays or fines. Litco provides fully compliant, heat-treated wooden shipping crates.
Certification ensures your crate is stamped, treated, and recognized worldwide. Litco’s team helps you avoid customs delays and keep your supply chain running smoothly.

Litco provides custom quotes in as little as 24–48 hours after receiving your product specifications and shipping details. Quick turnaround helps you keep projects and deliveries on schedule.
Our process begins when you upload your specs through our site. An engineer reviews the requirements, determines the right design, and calculates pricing within two business days. For urgent needs, Litco prioritizes rush jobs to keep you moving. This speed means you can move forward without long waiting periods while still knowing your crate will be built to exacting standards. Reliable quotes, delivered fast, help you plan confidently and reduce costly downtime in your supply chain.

Litco uses SPF (Spruce-Pine-Fir), SYP (Southern Yellow Pine), and engineered sheets like OSB or CDX. Each material is carefully chosen for durability, strength, and compliance with shipping standards.
SPF offers cost efficiency and versatility, while SYP provides added load strength for heavy or oversized shipments. Engineered sheets like OSB and CDX are ideal for large surfaces, offering both durability and price advantages. By blending these options, Litco balances performance, cost, and compliance for each unique application. Customers gain peace of mind knowing every board and panel has been selected to meet the real-world demands of shipping while keeping their products secure from start to finish.

The cost of a custom wooden shipping crate depends on factors like size, materials, design complexity, and whether export certification is required. Litco provides quick, competitive quotes tailored to your exact specifications.
Pricing is never one-size-fits-all. A small knock-down crate designed to lower freight costs may be less expensive than a heavy-duty crate with reinforced saddles and tie-downs for industrial machinery. Export-ready crates also require heat treatment and ISPM-15 stamping, which impacts cost. Litco’s quoting process balances material efficiency, compliance, and protection, giving you a reliable price in 24–48 hours. By engineering around your needs, we ensure every dollar spent on crating delivers measurable value in protection, efficiency, and compliance.
