Post Office Sculpture

Even if you are an experienced shipper yourself, when it comes to large, heavy, or bulky items, you need extra help. This is especially true if your items are valuable pieces of art. For example, what if you need to ship a modern stainless steel sculpture or a valuable marble statue? How about the entire art installation? If you are an artist or a gallery owner, you know that shipping fine art like that is a challenging task that requires knowledge, experience, planning, and special equipment. Hence the question arises: what is the best way to ship large items safely and securely?

The best way to ship large items, such as sculptures and statues, is to hire a reliable art moving company specializing in oversized shipping. Fine Art Shippers can be an ideal choice for this job. We have been shipping fine art and antiques for more than two decades and have extensive experience in handling very large and heavy items made of wood, glass, metal, and stone. For instance, last year, our team of art handlers moved a whole collection of very heavy glass sculptures by the renowned American artist Henry Richardson, and several weeks ago, we shipped a 7th-century terracotta horse at the request of iGavel Auctions. In fact, at Fine Art Shippers, we know the best way to ship large items of any kind, including oversized bronze sculptures like the one placed right in front of the remarkable James A. Farley Post Office building in New York City.
