Case Study – Summers Place

Background

Having worked closely with Summers Place auctions for several years we were asked to provide a quotation for a full packaging and shipping service for approx 50 large stoneware garden sculpture to 2 destinations in the USA via sea freight.

Client Proposal

Following an onsite meeting at Summers Place we measured the items and provided as follows:

A quotation for manufacturing for the wooden crates / shrink wrapped palletised items
A door to door shipping quotation for 3 x 40ft containers to the 2 destinations in the USA

Solution

As a result of this initial meeting and our quotation we were instructed to proceed in the complete pack, shipping and insurance of this consignment, door to door.
The process included:

Supply of wooden crates
Packaging sculptures into crates and onto custom pallets for shrink wrapping.
Secure loading to sea freight containers
Sea freight shipping services door to door including licences and customs clearances, UK & USA

“I just wanted to say that I got the boxes and they are great! Thanks for all your help. You’ve been super helpful from the start to the end. Hopefully I need more boxes very soon!”

Claudia Pape

Excellent Service!

Can I take this opportunity to thank you and your colleagues for the excellent service you have provided. The crate was manufactured to a high quality and complied with the Kodak specification and drawings.

The outbound and return transport was similarly managed to a high level of service quality with excellent communication throughout and with due consideration to our demand for rapid delivery to the vendor in the US and return to our factory in Harrow, so that we could meet planned project dates.

We loved the crates.

We were very impressed with the crates supplied to us and the items have now gone to the US. I just wanted to forward on feedback from our employees and my management.

They loved the crates and were impressed with the quick turn-around. Your driver was extremely friendly and helpful.

It was a pleasure dealing with yourselves and we look forward to ongoing business

A standing ovation!

The viola arrived in perfect condition this morning via FedEx. The packing was very nicely accomplished. As a professional musician, I always appreciate it when I hear something which is well-prepared and well-executed. If what you all did was a performance, I’d give you a standing ovation!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
