Discover the Best Art Shipping Services in New Mexico!

September 3, 2019 by shipsafe

Moving to a new home is an experience everyone has to go through at some point in life.

Moving to a new living accommodation is never easy. It will probably happen after causing some hassle. Everything you own has to get boxed up and go.

But what would you do with the piece of art you’ve got locked up in the basement?

You have to move it without causing damage to it! This is the biggest dilemma art owners, auction houses and art galleries in New Mexico face frequently.

New Mexico is a hub for art lovers. The variety of art markets here is equivalent to none other.

Pakmail has been providing folks from New Mexico the best art shipping services in Santa Fe since 1995!

Let’s take a look at the services we provide for shipping your invaluable possessions!

Exclusive Services for Big and Small Businesses

Our expert movers know exactly which boxes are needed for which piece of art. We have served several galleries, museums, artists, retail stores and auction houses over the years. For shipping fine art items, we regularly update our packaging material and methods. Our services are user-friendly, effective and quite efficient.

Custom-Made Shipping Crates

The reason our services have left a prominent mark in New Mexico is because we give attention to, and truly care about the details. We make our shipping crates in-house, which puts us directly in control of the quality hugging your art as it’s in route.

The custom crates are designed to hold any and all kinds of art works. If you are transporting delicate paintings or bronzes, our custom crates are made especially for you!

Salient Features of the Packaging of Artwork   

We use the following three types of packaging for artwork.

1. Art Box with Peanuts

This is made with glassine or glass mask. Your artwork is wrapped in a bubble wrap, placed in a cardboard sandwich, then into the art box it goes.

2. Custom Art Box

It is also made with glassine or glass mask. Your piece is placed inside a double wall to fit the frame size. It has foam inserts instead of peanuts. It also has a puncture resistant liner.

3. Custom Crates

It also uses foam inserts in place of peanuts. The glassine or glass mask in custom crates is lined with bead board.

Salient Features of the Packaging of Bronzes

We provide the following three types of packaging options for bronzes.

1.The Double Box

In this type of packaging, bronze items are wrapped in foam and floated in peanuts. It has an inner and an outer box.

2. The Custom Double Box

In custom double boxes, there are no floating peanuts. Instead a bead board is inserted. In addition, a double wall system is created for the inner and outer box.

3. Custom Crates for Extra Delicate Items

These boxes are made with foam inserts instead of peanuts. They include braces to support the bronzes inside the crates. We ensure the package goes through minimal movement during transit to keep it from any sort of damage.

PakMail Exclusivity

  • Santa Fe SWAIA Indian Market
  • Santa Fe SWAIA Spanish Market

Bought some amazing artwork on Canyon Road? Ship it home with PakMail

June 15, 2019 by shipsafe

Pak Mail Shipping and Packaging Santa Fe New Mexico
Fragile – That must be Italian

You just found an amazing painting on Canyon Road, you know exactly where it’s going to go in your house and you pulled the trigger. Now what do you do?

Well, if you live out of state, you’ll likely need to ship that painting, especially if it’s a large piece. But even it’s a small piece, you probably don’t want to trust the airline with your luggage when there is a painting you’re in love with shoved inside of it. (One time flying back from Europe we saw our bags sitting on the tarmac for 15 minutes in a torrential downpour. Several things were soaked and subsequently ruined.)

The gallery manager probably already knows, but your next step is to call PakMail (505 989-7380). We’ll give you a free quote then pick it up, package it properly and arrange transport with a shipper. In some cases we even do our own delivery, even out of state.

You probably don’t need us to tell you, but it is worth spending the money to have someone like PakMail take care of everything for you https://weshipsantafe.com/art-bronze-packing-shipping/. We have been packing art for shipping for decades and will ensure your precious piece of art is properly protected. (That was a lot of P’s wasn’t it?)

We just don’t recommend you try to pack a painting yourself. You probably spent a lot of money for your favorite new artwork, so it’s worth spending a little bit to make sure it gets home in one piece.

Then it goes on it’s merry way to you, with full-value coverage, of course. Sadly, we don’t offer picture hanging services once the package arrives at your home.
