Fine Art Packing Specialists

Moving antiques, artwork and historic pieces requires a different level of care, knowledge and preparation. At Statham & Company, our dedicated fine art removals team specialise in handling delicate and high value items, from individual heirlooms to complete collections. With years of experience working alongside private collectors and antique professionals, we understand how important it is that every piece is protected, handled with precision and transported securely.

Using specialist packing techniques, bespoke materials and trained fine art movers, we ensure your antiques are carefully wrapped, packed and prepared for safe transport, whether moving locally or overseas.

Antique Fragile Pack / Part Pack

Antique and fine art pieces require specialist handling, careful preparation and the correct protective materials to ensure they are fully safeguarded throughout your move. Our dedicated art removals team are trained to pack delicate historic items, paintings, chandeliers, clocks and antique furniture using proven techniques designed to minimise risk.

As part of our standard process, we will carefully prepare larger fragile antiques such as mirrors, artwork and statement pieces using specialist covers, protective wrapping and bespoke materials where required.

If you prefer to pack some items yourself, we can still assist with those more delicate or valuable pieces that require expert handling. During your survey, our team will assess your collection and advise on the safest packing approach.

Supply of Packing Materials

If you would prefer to prepare some of your antique items yourself, we can supply a range of professional packing materials designed specifically for fragile and historic pieces. From acid free paper and protective wraps to reinforced cartons and bespoke crates, our materials are selected to provide the highest level of protection.

Reusable materials may be supplied with a refundable deposit, and our team are always available to offer guidance on the safest packing methods for valuable or delicate antiques.

Where possible, we use sustainable and reusable materials that offer excellent protection while supporting responsible moving practices.

Export Wrapping & Packing

When antiques or artwork are travelling overseas, specialist export wrapping is essential to protect items during longer transit times and additional handling. Our fine art team prepare each piece using museum standard packing methods, including bespoke cases, protective layering and detailed inventory labelling.

Whether moving a single item or an entire collection, we can arrange secure transport by air or sea freight, ensuring your antiques leave the UK safely and arrive in the same condition at their destination.
