Antique Packing Techniques
Proper packing is crucial for safeguarding your antiques and collectibles. Here are some techniques we recommend:
Use High-Quality Packing Materials: Invest in sturdy boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, and foam peanuts to provide adequate cushioning.
Wrap Each Item Individually: Ensure each piece is wrapped separately to prevent scratches and damage.
Secure Fragile Items: Use padding and secure each item within the box to prevent movement during transit.
Specialized Antique Moving Equipment
We use specialized equipment to handle your valuable items with care:
Custom Crates: Custom-built crates provide additional protection for particularly fragile or large items.
Dollies and Hand Trucks: These tools help move heavy items without causing damage.
Lifting Straps: To safely lift and carry heavy or awkwardly shaped pieces.
Insurance Options
Despite the best precautions, accidents can happen. We offer various insurance options to provide peace of mind:
Full-Value Protection: This coverage ensures you are compensated for the full value of any damaged or lost items.
Released Value Protection: A more economical option that offers limited liability based on the weight of your items.
