Who we are

Based in Mississauga, Argos Crating serves agricultural equipment businesses, food processors, and industrial companies across Bradford and Bradford West Gwillimbury. We're not a national franchise or a warehouse operation — every crate is built by craftsmen with decades of experience, from Holland Marsh harvesting and processing equipment to heavy industrial machinery up to 35,000 lbs.

We cover all of Bradford - including the Dissette Street, Holland Street, and Hwy 400/Hwy 9 interchange industrial corridors — as well as Holland Landing, Bond Head, Cookstown, Beeton, and the broader Simcoe County border area. One-time jobs and recurring commercial accounts both welcome.

Bradford's Holland Marsh Agricultural Corridor

Bradford West Gwillimbury sits at the southern gateway to Holland Marsh - a 7,000-acre expanse of organic peat soil that produces the majority of Canada's onions, carrots, celery, and specialty greens, earning it the name "Canada's Salad Bowl." The farms that operate in Holland Marsh are not small family plots — they are large-scale corporate operations running specialized harvesting machinery (carrot uprooting harvesters with long conveyor belts, onion windrowers, celery cutters), refrigerated storage and grading systems, and irrigation infrastructure that requires industrial-scale equipment logistics. When this equipment is purchased, overhauled, or shipped for international sale, it needs precision crating. Beyond agriculture, Bradford's position at the Hwy 400 and Hwy 9 interchange makes it a natural hub for Simcoe County-bound freight — and one of Ontario's fastest-growing residential communities has generated sustained construction equipment demand across the municipality.

At Argos Crating, we build crates for the agricultural machinery, processing equipment, and industrial cargo that moves through Bradford's Hwy 400 corridor — from Holland Marsh harvesting equipment to construction machinery heading across Canada or overseas.
