If you work in shipping, manufacturing, or procurement, you've probably heard "skid" and "pallet" used interchangeably — sometimes even by the same person in the same sentence. In everyday conversation, that's usually fine. But when you're specifying packaging for a heavy, oversized or irregularly shaped load, the difference matters.

After years of service customers as Basin Material Handling, we are proud to introduce a new brand — Basin Industries — built to bring customers more materials, more expertise, and more ways to solve their toughest packaging challenges.

A high-volume industrial manufacturer was losing significant time and money on their shipping operations. By switching to EZ Loc Crates, a custom-designed and built solution by Basin Industries, the company transformed their logistics loop.
