All items can be stored until the receiver is ready to accept the items. This is particularly useful if the sender is waiting for payment or if an overseas buyer has bought from an auction house or gallery and doesn’t want the piece to be delivered until they arrive home.
Free storage is available for up to three months to all clients who avail of our Packing, Crating & Shipping services. While in storage, your pieces are insured. Our yard and store are monitored 24 hours a day. Usually, within one day of receiving your instructions, your pieces are out of storage and in transit to your destination.
Storage can take up a lot of valuable space in a gallery or auction house so this is an invaluable resource to have. We provide ample space for even the largest pieces. Also note that, by having use of our facilities, a lot of costs are reduced. For example, if a gallery were to send a piece of art to another gallery, they would have to arrange a courier to take the piece to a crating service, get it crated, organize another pickup, and bring it back to the gallery. They may then be left with a bulky crate, which is taking up valuable space, if their client isn’t ready to take delivery of the piece yet. With our service, we will collect the piece and take care of the crating, storage and shipment; making it an entriely cost and space-effective, hassle-free experience for our client.
