All the questions

We evaluate each individual item in any shipment and determine the best way to protect them and meet your needs. We consider the characteristics of the items, the financial, strategic and/or sentimental value of the items, the weight, and the mode of transportation to determine how the items will be packed.

GoldenHorizonFreights the originator of FLAV™ shipping – items that are fragile, large, awkward and valuable. GoldenHorizonFreights specializes in packing and shipping items most mail and parcel centers can’t handle due to their packing limitations. GoldenHorizonFreights specializes in packing and shipping artwork, antiques, furniture, electronics, computer servers, machinery, and equipment. We serve both the residential and business-to-business (B2B) markets.

The decision on whether your item needs to be boxed or crated is best left to the packing specialists at Flypetsairways. We have over 25 years of experience packing difficult-to-ship items, and match the packing materials and techniques based on the fragility of your goods, specifications, value and shipping and destination requirements.

We recommend you arrange your shipment one week in advance to allow us adequate time to schedule the pickup for the day you request.  At certain times of the year, we can accommodate last minute moves.

Our standard turn around time for domestic shipments is 10-14 business days from pickup to delivery. For our blanket or pad wrap service it ranges from 3 to 10 weeks. We can always provide expedited service options to meet your needs.
