Why Expert Packing & Shipping Matters for Fine Art

Transporting valuable artwork requires more than just careful handling—it demands a full-service strategy built around industry expertise, communication, and protection. At The Packaging Store, we understand what collectors, curators, and artists need when it comes to fine art shipping. Our services include:

• In-depth knowledge of Philadelphia’s neighborhoods and the logistics challenges of both urban and suburban pick-ups and deliveries.
• Professional packing for a wide range of artwork, including framed originals, stone sculptures, multimedia installations, and glassworks.
• Custom-built wooden crates designed to match each piece’s size, shape, and fragility.
• Full compliance with domestic and international regulations, including ISPM 15 standards for export-ready crating.
• Coverage options to protect your investment throughout the shipping process.
• Clear communication and real-time tracking from pickup to final delivery anywhere in the world. From a single painting headed from Rittenhouse Square to a collector in Denver, to a multi-piece shipment bound for an international exhibition in Toronto, your artwork is in expert hands.
