Export-ready crates and custom crating built for your machinery

Industrial Crating & Export Packaging Services in Toronto

Solid Hook provides industrial crating and export packaging for machinery across Toronto, the GTA, and Ontario. Our crews build ISPM-15 certified custom crates on-site at your facility — around your equipment, before it moves — or at our Brampton location. Since [year], we have crated CNC machines, injection presses, transformers, compressors, and oversized industrial loads for manufacturers and exporters across Ontario.


Crating is available as a standalone service or fully integrated with our rigging, machinery moving, and transportation teams — one company, one coordinator, one invoice.

Safe, Certified, Fully Insured Machinery Hauling Services 

Export-Ready Crates for Overseas Shipping from Toronto

Our crating services are designed exclusively for industrial machinery — not general freight or consumer goods.

Our custom-built crates come with:

  • ISPM-15 certified wood — required by customs in 180+ countries for all wooden packaging crossing international borders
  • Custom sizing to adjust to your machinery dimensions
  • Reinforced structures for vibration resistance
  • On-site fabrication available — we build at your facility, around your equipment, before it moves

We’re dedicated to the safety, compliance, and damage prevention of your items during long-distance transport.

Moisture Protection, Blocking & Bracing

Moisture protection is crucial for export-level shipping. Solid Hook provides packaging that includes moisture protection, such as film barriers, anti-corrosion materials.
We also provide blocking and bracing services that help stabilize machinery within crates and skidding for the base support of your forklifts and cranes.

Moisture & Corrosion Protection Methods

Our attention to detail and structural integrity guide our packaging services. This allows us to make sure our custom crating in Toronto meets your expectations.

Every crate is blocked and braced for balanced weight distribution. Our moisture control methods prevent corrosion and condensation damage during long-haul or overseas shipments.

  • Firm barriers & corrosion-resistant materials
  • Blocking & bracing for reliable stability
  • Balanced for a safer experience

Recently used Solid Hook to secure a high value custom packaging machine going to Florida. They arrived on time, prepared, professional and performed the task of securing the machine in the trailer (block and brace) flawlessly. Will definitely use them again. Highly recommended.

We have a 300 ton Komatsu press, very big and heavy machine. Solid Hook laid it down, transported it and installed it at the new location. Everything went smooth, no damage to the machine or the floors. Very professional crew, they know what they are doing. I am very happy with the service and recommend this company.

We brought Solid Hook in to relocate a five-axis CNC and two support units across our Brampton plant. What stood out was the front end — they walked the route before quoting, flagged a door clearance issue we’d missed, and the number they gave us held. Crew showed up when they said, WSIB paperwork and insurance were sorted before anyone touched a machine. They skated the CNC without a scratch, re-leveled it on the pads, and had us back running a half-day ahead of what we’d budgeted. No surprises on the invoice. Foreman kept us in the loop the whole day. Would use them again.

Called a few companies for moving my machine shop from Vaughan to Etobicoke. Solid Hook was the only one who came in person to look at the shop before quoting. Price was fair and they finished on the day they said. Good crew, hard workers. Recommend.

Excellent experience with Solid Hook Inc. The crew was professional, on time, and handled our industrial washing machinery move safely and efficiently. Their knowledge of machinery moving, industrial rigging, and equipment installation really showed. Everything was positioned perfectly, and the project was completed without any issues. Highly recommend them for any heavy machinery moving or plant relocation work.
