Any case is a road case if it protects what’s inside from the rigors of travel. But when we talk about road cases, most of us think about those romantic vagabonds, the “roadies,” whose job is to pack and unpack a band’s musical equipment—hopefully intact. Not that many think about the cases themselves that protect the electronics that make or break a performance. As an orchestra or band member will tell you, their equipment had better be traveling first class in only the finest, most protective packing cases.
It’s hard to generalize, but there are certain features customers look for in traditional road cases. The first is protection equaling that of a steel vault. Aside from various shapes and sizes, most if not all cases can be customized to suit a variety of options. Road case features generally include:
- Adjustable dividers
- Custom-fit inserts
- Easy stacking – end-to-end or side by side
- Fits in semi-trailers and 96” box trucks
- Sturdy waterproof material
- Waterproof, dustproof, shockproof
- Heavy duty but lightweight
- Fine quality, rust-proof hardware
Road cases come in every size, shape, and purpose imaginable. From light-flight cases with combo locks to any size or shape cases with completely custom interiors, we can make it for you to specs if we don’t sell them.

When It Comes to Road Cases, Know This
They are not cheap, so you want good quality reusable cases. It isn’t easy to quote prices or even estimate costs because of their versatility. From $50 to $3500 about says it all. Shop around but make sure you understand quality before purchasing a case that will not stand up or meet your expectations. Remember, you’re protecting what’s in it, and you want the best.
Hard road cases have an exterior of polycarbonate or plastic, and sometimes even metal or wood for specialty equipment. The case usually opens in half, like a clamshell, and consists of one large compartment to store your belongings. But don’t hold us to that. Road cases have a way of morphing into as many shapes and sizes as possible, along with a slew of all creative additions.
