Ray and Bernice,

I learned of the Woodbridge branch owned by Ray and Bernice from an acquaintance artist. It is my first time shipping art overseas for exhibition. The complicating factor was that I needed to use an ATA Carnet as the main shipping document.

Most of my dealings regarding shipping were with Bernice. She could not have been more attentive or more patient with a first timer. She was meticulous in her attention to detail to ensure trouble free shipping. Ray was reassuring and took the time to explain the construction of the crate. I am not easy to convince because every service makes 'promises' but in my experience, (shipment arrived safely and crate was strong enough to be reusable for return shipping) Bernice and Ray 'promised' and far exceeded my hopes. They have become my 'go to', totally trustworthy shippers. Plus they are a delight to deal with. Thanks so much Bernice and Ray.

Arrived Safe and Sound

Dear Ray:

The specialized box you prepared for us made its inaugural run last December.  We are truly grateful for the work you did for us...What a pleasure it is to have the security and ease of transport for our large crucifix.  Using the case you made to custom fit and safely carry the large crucifix to different parts of the city has been a Godsend.
Shipping a crucifix was awkward and challenging, and we worried about possible damage.  We now have complete peace of mind that the crucifix will arrive at its destination intact and be returned to us in the same condition.
It was equally a pleasure working with you as you understood what we were looking for and delivered more than what you promised.

Hello Ray:

I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the outstanding job and service your company provided in packing and shipping to me, in Los Angeles, the contents of my parents home in Toronto. I have just completed the task of unpacking all of the shipped goods and I marvel at the meticulous care you took into packing each and every item. The expensive art work and rare clocks were superbly crated/protected and  and even some of my less valuable household goods received their own boxes with multiple layers of protection.

Besides the packaging itself I also want to thank  you again for making the international component of this shipment seem effortless. Your knowledge of the customs and clearance aspect of this shipment made for a smooth importation.

 

Please use my name as a reference for any future prospects/customers who, like myself, found you online but need assurance of your reliability, professionalism and expertise.
