Art Moving Services for Paintings and Fragile Artwork
Our experienced art moving professionals understand the importance of the pieces they move. Whether it’s a personal collection or a gallery exhibition, your artwork is in the hands of specialists that honor its value.
What Art Moving Involves
At New City Moving, we excel at moving art. You can expect the skill and proven practices that separates premier art movers from the rest. Depending on a project’s requirements, we include custom crating, white-glove handling, and meticulous cushioning for each item. Our premium packing and unpacking services also mean your art is protected from moisture, physical damage and the vibrations of transit.
From smaller paintings to large sculptures, we can find the ideal solution for every type of artwork. We pack and move framed and unframed paintings, prints, canvases, sculptures, mirrors, wall art, installations and more. Each piece is treated with the highest level of care.
Safe Transport for Artwork and Fragile Pieces
The artwork we move travels in modern trucks fitted with secure tie-down systems and padded interiors. Artwork is carefully loaded and secured to minimize movement and protect each piece throughout the journey. With over 70 trucks in our fleet, we can accommodate everything from a single piece to a large collection.

Why Choose Professional Art Movers
Most artwork is fragile and easily damaged by incorrect handling. Without the appropriate care, canvases, glass, wooden frames and other materials are vulnerable during transportation. For paintings, sculptures and other pieces, even the slightest marks or scratches can affect the appearance and value. Our experienced home and business movers understand the stakes involved in transporting your art, and go beyond what most standard moving services provide. With professional packing and placement, secure storage and precise handling, your art is handled the right way.
