FAQ
Artwork & Antique Moving FAQs
How much does artwork moving cost?
Artwork moving cost depends on size, value, packing requirements, distance, and special handling needs. Small paintings start from ₹25,000 while large sculptures and museum pieces can cost ₹2,00,000+ depending on complexity and insurance value.
Is transit insurance available for artwork?
Yes. Full-value transit insurance is standard for artwork moving. Coverage is based on the appraised value of the piece. Always provide appraisal documents and photographs before booking for accurate coverage.
Do you use museum-grade crates?
Yes. Professional artwork movers use museum-grade custom crates with acid-free tissue, Ethafoam padding, and archival materials to protect paintings, sculptures and antiques from humidity, dust and impact damage.
Can you handle large sculptures and installations?
Yes. Sculptures and art installations require specialized handling — rigid crating, custom padding, lifting equipment and possibly crane services for large pieces. Please share dimensions and photographs when requesting a quote.
Is artwork moving available internationally?
Yes. International artwork moving involves custom export crates, customs documentation, and coordination with galleries or institutions abroad. Costs vary significantly by destination and piece value.
Can you install the artwork at the new location?
Yes. Professional art movers offer installation services — hanging paintings, positioning sculptures, and setting up display cases. This is usually quoted separately based on complexity.
How do you protect paintings from humidity?
Paintings are wrapped in acid-free paper, padded with Ethafoam, and placed in moisture-barrier crates with silica gel packets. Climate-controlled vehicles maintain stable temperature and humidity throughout transit.
Do museums and galleries use these services?
Yes. Many professional art movers work with galleries, museums and auction houses. Their processes follow international art handling standards (similar to those used by Sotheby's and Christie's logistics partners).
