Shipping by rail requires compliance with government mandated transport regulations. With over 30 years of rail transport experience, American Crating Company has the knowledge and ability to secure most equipment to railcars. We’ll work with the rail inspector to determine specific railroad requirements for your products and follow through to ensure those requirements are met for shipping.

VAPOR PROOF SEALED BAGS
