56 items for crating
...and we need the crates this week
Urgency is a common theme in crating for moves. Here Rebul helped one of our removals client's with a move that demanded the highest attention to detail in looking after their customer in a very short space of time. We consolidated 56 items into 24 crates to reduce crating cost and save lots of time in packing.
How Paintings Get Damaged
And how to avoid this through smarter packaging
It cannot be stressed enough that most damage in shipping occurs because something comes into contact with the painting surface. But do you know how old the artworks is? Is it an oil, acrylic or perhaps mixed media? Is it framed or canvas? These things can make a difference to how something is crated.
Painting Crate Options
Be prepared with a solution
Some artworks can be bubble wrapped and maybe just put in an art pack. Artworks by their very nature are delicate and unique. One should be prepared to crate an artwork in the way it will be most suitably protected.
