Professional Art Moving Makes a Difference

Moving artwork involves significant risks that require professional attention. Many collectors and institutions need specialized art moving services for various reasons:

• Preventing damage to valuable and irreplaceable pieces
• Maintaining proper humidity and temperature control
• Ensuring appropriate insurance coverage
• Navigating complex logistics for museum exhibitions
• Relocating private collections between homes
• Transporting auction acquisitions
• Moving corporate art collections during office relocations
• Handling oversized or unusually shaped artwork
• Securing chain of custody documentation
• Managing international shipping regulations for art

Proper art handling requires specialized training and equipment that general moving companies simply don't possess. Our team at Matheson Transfer Company has developed specific protocols for handling various types of artwork, from delicate paintings to massive sculptures, ensuring each piece receives the care it deserves.
