Medical Machines

Medical machinery is both delicate and expensive, requiring it to be shipped with care and consideration. There are many factors to consider when shipping medical machines around the U.S. and cross-border. Since medical machines are expensive, they must be packaged and transported correctly. With this in mind, FreightCenter partners with carriers specializing in shipping medical machines and equipment.

Properly packaging and shipping medical machines are critical. Manufacturers, hospitals, and other medical professionals must receive undamaged machines. Patients rely on these medical machines for accurate and sometimes lifesaving medical care. FreightCenter goes the extra mile to ensure your medical machines arrive safely and reach their destination on time. 

Is your medical equipment fragile, heavy, or oversized? Our team of experienced freight experts will help you find the right carrier and services to transport medical equipment safely and efficiently. Here at FreightCenter, we make finding a reputable and experienced carrier easy.

  • Clear Labeling: Mark packages with “fragile,” “sensitive,” and accurate destination information.
  • Documentation: Prepare invoices, shipping labels, customs forms (if applicable), and a packing list with contents, make, and model.

 

Bonus:

Remember: Safe and well-packed medical equipment ensures smooth delivery and protects your valuable investment. Choose the best option that fits your needs and budget.
