Inquiry (采购产品): crate quote needed Hi: I was wondering if you could provide a quote for a shipping crate we need to move an instrument from Ross Laboratories, 3300 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH, 43219, to Utah State University, Logan, Utah 84322. The instrument is being donated to our University and we need to have it crated before we can have it shipped. The main instrument is rectangular and is on wheels and is 84" (L) x 30" (W) x 42" (H) and weighs approximately 1430 lbs. We have already arranged the shipping and are looking for a local Columbus area company to supply a crate for the instrument. The crate would only be used once, so it doesn't have to be a reusable design. The crate needs to have a base that can accommodate a normal fork-lift (i.e., the base of the crate needs space similar to that of a standard pallet, so that it can move to and from a dock). All sides to be of at least 1/2" plywood except for one of the short "ends" which should be 3/4" (Ross will modify this thinker end to form a hinged ramp for loading). This end and the top should be left unattached so the instrument can be loaded. We would need to have you deliver the crate to Ross Labs, where Ross personnel would pack it. Some foam padding strips around the sides to help cushion the instrument would be helpful. Please let me know if you need any additional information. If this is something you can provide, please email or fax me a quote, including delivery to Ross. Thanks! **** Hidden Message ***** Robert Brown UMC 0300 Chemistry & Biochemistry Dept.
