Here we have for sale is my own design of Mdf wooden Boxes, which we use as Pet Coffins.
This sale is for a small size box !
I own a Pet Cemetry, and i make and use these boxes for the burial of customers pets,
wether it is for a mouse or a great dane dog.
I started making these boxes
because we could not source a good quality, strong box for the burial of all pets, but especially Large Dogs, like Alsatian's, Labradors, Rottweilers and great dane's and alike.
Not only could we not find good quality boxes for the use
of coffins, but just as important, we could not find any boxes that were anywhere near the size required for so many different sized animals.
We new that sourcing the size of boxes was always going to be a problem, as they also needed to be able to withstand the weight of the pets.
I then decided to try my hand at making the boxes myself, that way i new i could get the exact
sizes that were required for our
customers pets, which is not only the length of the box, but the height and width too, this
helps no end, so as not to have to try and make the pet fit the box.
The first box i made was for a
very large DOG and to be honest, the box was not a bad example for my first attempt !
(I think we all just assume that it
is easy to make a box that not only looks half decent, but is also strong enough to fit the purpose, but as i learned, it was not that easy)...
So i bought more helpful tools etc, and kept making more boxes and i got to the stage where the boxes were a good solid box, (baring in mind that the boxes are Not mass produced on a sophisticated machine) !
My first customer was in fact over the moon with the box which they saw fit for their pets last resting please, and i have never had a complaint with any of my boxes from that point.
Customers do at times like to have an oversize box so they can put their pets favourite blanket or toys in the box with them, and some customers like to line their boxes and add cushions and artificial flowers etc.
I set out by choosing the best material that was strong enough for the boxes, and also
looked neat and clean, to which i chose an 18mm thick Mdf wood material, which i found good to work with.
We must keep in mind that the boxes will eventually degrade
over time, so as long as the boxes serve the purpose on the
day, all is well.
The boxes are made with 2 x ends, 2 x sides, a base and a lid, to which the joints are glued and screwed together, and the lid is unhinged and is also screwed down.
We can add hinges and handles etc, at extra cost.
You can easily paint the boxes or add pictures or a name plate etc yourself.
Which brings me to the
CONDITIONS of the sale of my
boxes, as described below:
1. I do not portray my boxes to be perfect, there may be the odd imperfection, such as there may be a very slight imperfection within the box or the mdf board itself !
2. The boxes are made so they
can be a flat pack item, which means that you can assemble the box yourself, or the boxes can be sent as a built item, which will be sent to you as a
complete box, ready to use.
3.The postage cost will be fairly
high, as the boxes are heavy, and we are constantly looking for cheaper methods of delivery, but we cannot compromise on the care required to deliver the box to customers.
4.We do our utmost to try and
make sure the box gets to you in an undamaged state, but if
your box does however arrive
damaged in any way, then a claim would need to be made
with the delivery company, to
which we would help you with.
These boxes can be used for
multi purposes, such as storage etc.
I can make boxes from as small
as, say, 200 x 200mm, all the way up to 1200m x 900mm !
Prices range from £55.00 to
£235.00 for the Extra Large boxes, all prices are plus postage costs !
If you require a box made to a
specific size we can do this.
(Please send us the size of a box to suit your needs, for a
bespoke quote).
