Welcome to Export Boxes

We are a certified manufacturer of ISPM 15-compliant, heat-treated boxes for all international and domestic destinations. We specialize in providing custom shipping crates and pallets for your domestic and export shipping needs. We can take your drawings and produce a custom shipping container perfectly matched to your products and materials.
No drawings? No problem! All we need are the dimensions of the product(s) and the weight. We can do the rest. We have been manufacturing shipping boxes long enough to know what is required based on weight and size. If you're shipping something for the first time, we will build samples for you to test and determine if modifications are needed.
Besides protecting your product en route, our shipping containers make a great first impression - we stencil your logo and handling messages on the sides of the crate.
Our Products & Services

Who needs our products? If you make or sell something too big or odd-sized to ship in a cardboard box, come to us. We can design a custom crate from your drawings or simply from the dimensions of your product and its weight. Request your no-obligation quote today!
We typically build shipping containers and boxes for things that are big, like MRIs, large bearings, pipe valves, welders and welding components, large-equipment cabs, etc. But we are just as able to build containers for odd-shaped things: manufacturing jigs, roll carts, raw metal alloy products, etc.
We are easy to do business with. Our services enable you, our customers, to succeed. We make sure you meet your deadlines and have our products when you need them.
We typically build pre-assembled crates, but we also build ready-to-assemble crates. We also build "product frames" or "product protection frames." These allow an odd-sized, heavy product to be placed in an open, wooden frame which secures it for shipping. These frames make the products easy for a forklift to maneuver.
Once we receive a finalized order, we can normally have your containers or pallets ready for shipment within a matter of days!

Welcome to Export Boxes. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you find some useful information here.
Our business was founded in 1982 by my father. A Fortune 500 company approached him with a need to ship a very large, heavy product that they were manufacturing. We built their really big crates by hand, and still build them for that company. As time passed, our manufacturing techniques and output rates improved, and we attracted more customers.

When you ship something out of the country in a wooden container, it has to have an ISPM 15 stamp. The exporting agencies and customs officials are looking for this stamp on any exported wooden containers, pallets, etc. Wooden crates with the ISPM 15 stamp satisfy the requirements of the IPPC, an international treaty to prevent the spread and introduction of pests in wood and plant products. We use only ISPM 15-compliant, heat-treated and stamped wood packaging to build your export boxes.
