Art Movers

The logistics of a package sent from one country to another, or from one location to another in the same country and locality is well known to those in the route business. Packages can contain mundane things from sneakers to books, and the occasional appliance. However, those we consider as valuable art are like the Princesses of packages. They are more valuable than other packages because damage to art (paintings, sculptures etc) cannot be settled with just a refund.

Collectors from all over the world hold auctions that earns the artists millions or even billions of dollars. This artworks are really the most valuable things. In fact, the Catholic church’s main assets include the artworks of famous (now dead) painters in various places such as Rome and France.

There are companies that specialize in art transportation, and one of these is our advertiser, Art Moving, a company that ensures your art’s safety while it’s on the road. This type of specialized service is for royalty, and what could be more royal than artworks from the world’s most established art galleries?

The fact is, unless a regular shipper places stickers saying “fragile” all over the box, some moving companies still fail to handle fine art properly. How much money could it cost to restore a century-old painting? Maybe hundreds of thousands? And, this is only if it can be restored.
