CRATING & SHIPPING
From individually soft packing artworks to custom designed wood crates, we provided packaging services tailored to meet the needs of both the client and the fine art.
Our custom crates are designed and fabricated to ensure maximum protection during storage and transit. No matter the size, weight or value of your unique item, we design our crates using custom fittings, braces and foam padding to safely secure your items during transit and to make certain they arrive undamaged. Whether you have a one time shipment, travel from show to show, or just need to properly store your fine art, VAI Art Services is here to help!
We offer local, domestic and international shipping with our carefully selected and trusted industry partners and we take care of the whole door-to-door process for you including collection, packing, loading, custom clearance and delivery.
