Custom shipping saddles built to support, protect, and stabilize large equipment during transport.
Carrier’s Custom Crating designs and builds custom shipping saddles for heavy, oversized, and irregular equipment that requires stable support during storage, handling, and transport.
From large single saddles for heavy equipment to multiple smaller saddles built into a crate, each solution is designed around the specific size, weight, and shape of the load.
We build custom saddles to suit your requirements, including:
Our saddles are built for equipment ranging from 5-inch diameters to 10 feet, and from 2,000 lbs to 170,000 lbs.
Large and heavy equipment often cannot sit safely on a flat base alone. Without the right support, loads can shift, roll, or place uneven stress on critical points during transport.
Improper support can lead to:
Custom saddles provide stable, purpose-built support that protects both the equipment and the shipping process.
Our saddles are designed around how equipment will actually be stored, lifted, and transported, with careful consideration for weight distribution, diameter and contact points, forklift and crane handling, long-distance transport conditions, and integration with skids or crates where required. Whether a saddle is used on its own or built into a larger crate, the goal is the same: secure, stable support that performs in real-world conditions.
Standardized crating and packaging programs for repeat shipments and ongoing operations.
Professional on‑site crating and packaging performed at your facility or job site.
Moisture and corrosion protection tailored for sensitive and high‑value equipment.
Whether you need a single crate built tomorrow or a standardized program supporting hundreds of shipments per month, CCC scales to match your operation. Our systems, documentation, and shop-trained team ensure every shipment is built to spec, no matter how often you order.
