Ensuring that park benches arrive at their destination in perfect condition requires a meticulous and multi-layered packaging process. It begins with a thorough cleaning and inspection. Next, every component is carefully protected. Fragile surfaces, especially on wooden or metal benches, are first covered with a soft felt or foam wrap to prevent scratches. This is followed by several layers of heavy-duty bubble wrap, which acts as a cushion against impacts.
For maximum protection, critical areas like arms, legs, and decorative corners are fortified with high-density foam corner guards or custom-cut cardboard edge protectors. These are securely taped in place.
The prepared bench is then ready for its final shipping container. For standard benches, they are often securely strapped to a sturdy wooden pallet to prevent any movement. For long-distance or international shipping, a custom-built wooden crate is the gold standard. The bench is placed inside the crate and blocked—a technique using wooden braces to immobilize it—so it cannot shift during transit. The entire process, from the initial soft wrap to the final sealed crate, is designed to withstand the rigors of logistics and guarantee your park bench is delivered safely, ready for immediate installation and use.
