Gain by Outsourcing Wood Skid and Crate Production 

Since 1963, Fox Valley Wood Products has worked with manufacturers and OEMs. We provide custom crate and skid manufacturing services. Outsourcing these important functions provides a variety of benefits.  

Let’s look at why many companies choose to outsource production to a dedicated wood crate and skid manufacturer.  

For example, Fox Valley Wood Products buys materials like lumber and plywood by rail car. This saves us time and money, which we can pass on to our clients. These cost and time efficiencies reduce designs and builds for overhead, maintenance, and the need for additional storage space.  

From cutting and nailing, to heat treated materials, to heavy lifting, crating can be physically demanding. A trained and insured team from a specialized manufacturer helps reduce these risks. This lets you focus on your main business activities without worrying about safety.  

Our dedicated team can handle dozens of orders per hour. Our designers, builders, and delivery teams create and transport many crates and skids within the same or next day. This level of efficiency frees up production space, reduces labor costs, and minimizes injury risks. 

 Many OEMs and manufacturers believe they cannot afford to add extra time for an outside vendor to build their crates or skids. However, we are different, specializing in rapid response and delivery.   

You can save money and increase safety. It also helps with efficiency and flexibility. Companies can look at these key benefits to decide whether to keep production in-house or partner with Fox Valley Wood Products. 

With Fox Valley Wood Products as your partner, we can provide same-day quotes and delivery. We offer high-quality skid and crate fabrications at competitive prices. 

Outsourcing Production of Wood Skids and Crates protects your team, workspace, and your bottom line.
