Case Study:Art Shipping and Handling
James at our Atwater store recently got a call from one of our customers, to see if we could work with a local gallery and ship a 86 1/2" x 94" painting by Leif Ritchey the client had bought to the UK.
This is a quote James received from the gallery for shipping the painting from Los Angeles to London that they had gotten from C------ & T---, a well known International Art Shipper.
We looked at the quote, responded with our own quote, and wound up shipping the piece. If you look at the figures, you'll know why.
