But for teachers or lecturers facing a class or school move, it's important the upheaval doesn't impact on the students' day-to-day lives.

Teachers and lecturers accumulate a lot of important and confidential documents over the course of the academic year, so we know how important it is to you to keep track of your records. As the first crate hire company to introduce barcoded crates, we are the specialists in tracking and tracing boxes in a user friendly way, while also avoiding the durability and disposal issues found with cardboard boxes.

This technology allows for better crate management through effective tracking and traceability, with information available in real time, and eliminates unnecessary or unbudgeted costs for schools and universities. This system tracks each individual crate, identifying the location to help prevent loss, ensuring that your belongings arrive at the correct location.
