Expert Artwork Crating, Shipping & Transportation Services by Relo Solutions Group

Moving or shipping artwork is never just a “pickup and drop-off” task. Whether it’s a contemporary sculpture, a centuries-old painting, or a valuable private collection, artwork demands specialized handling, customized crating, and trusted transportation protocols. At Relo Solutions Group, we deliver white-glove artwork management services tailored to protect and preserve your most valuable pieces—wherever they need to go.

Why Professional Artwork Transportation Matters

Fine art is fragile, irreplaceable, and often incredibly high in value. Unfortunately, traditional moving or logistics companies often fall short when it comes to protecting artwork from:

• Environmental damage (humidity, temperature swings)

• Impact during transit

• Mishandling by untrained staff

• Insurance and liability risks

That’s why museums, galleries, interior designers, and collectors turn to specialty artwork transportation companies—like Relo Solutions Group.

 

Our Artwork Management Services

We provide end-to-end, nationwide art logistics for businesses, designers, and private collectors. Our capabilities include:

Custom Artwork Crating Services

No two works of art are the same. We engineer and build custom crates and enclosures using the right materials and design to prevent vibration, shifting, or damage. Whether it’s a framed canvas or a mixed-media sculpture, our crates are tailored for maximum protection and efficient loading.

Secure Artwork Transportation

We coordinate trained art handlers, climate-controlled vehicles, and GPS-tracked transportation nationwide. Every piece is treated as high-value cargo, not just freight.

To safely ship artwork, you need to use professional artwork transportation services that include:

• Custom artwork crating

• Climate-controlled vehicles

• Trained art handlers

• Insurance coverage
  Avoid using standard moving or courier services, as they may lack the specialized handling protocols needed for fine art.

 

Do I need climate control for shipping artwork?

  At Relo, every crate is custom-engineered for its specific contents to ensure maximum protection.

 

Can artwork be shipped internationally?

Yes, artwork can be shipped internationally, but it requires additional steps such as:

• Export documentation and customs clearance

• Professional-grade crating and packaging

• Insurance and security measures
  While Relo Solutions Group focuses on nationwide U.S. transportation, we can help guide clients on international coordination as needed.

 

What is the safest way to transport framed artwork?

The safest way to transport framed artwork is to:

1. Wrap it in glassine or acid-free paper

2. Add corner protectors

3. Use bubble wrap and foam padding

4. Place it in a custom artwork shipping crate
   Relo Solutions Group ensures each framed piece is packaged and secured according to best practices in safe artwork handling.
