Lab Equipment Shipping
Moving Scientific Equipment Safely
Shipping lab and biopharmaceutical equipment is a complex and delicate process. Lab shipments - from fragile glass items to large, technical equipment - require meticulous planning and specialized safety methods to ensure an accident-free journey. MoveIt® Specialized Logistics and MoveIt® Freight Solutions have spent years perfecting lab transport services, regionally and internationally. From around the corner to around the world, you can trust the experts at MoveIt® Companies to handle your sensitive equipment with the utmost care.
Moving Process Explained
How We Handle Lab Equipment
Ensuring it arrives safely and on time is paramount when transporting lab equipment. Whether moving analytical instruments or heavy machinery, our team is trained to handle these items with the utmost caution. The challenge is even greater when timely delivery is essential.
At MoveIt®, we employ advanced transportation techniques to guarantee that each piece of lab equipment reaches its destination intact and on schedule. Our teams use a combination of air rides, blanket wrap shipping, climate-controlled vehicles, and white glove service for fragile and expensive lab equipment. We don’t just offer a shipping service—we create a custom strategy built around your unique needs.
International Relocation Process
Lab Equipment Across Borders
Transporting lab equipment internationally requires a logistics company with a deep understanding of global shipping regulations and regulatory compliance. Any small mistake in paperwork can lead to delays and additional fees. Proper packaging is crucial, especially when equipment is in transit for extended periods.
MoveIt® specializes in international lab relocations, ensuring that every aspect of the move is handled with care and precision. Whether you need to ship lab equipment across borders or manage complex laboratory moves, we’re equipped to handle all your needs. Our expertise extends across the medical industry, where precision and reliability are paramount.
Risk Management Expertise
Why It Matters
MoveIt® understands the risks involved in shipping sensitive laboratory equipment. Large freezers, cumbersome observation equipment, and other specialized items require expertise that most ground shipping companies lack.
