The Art of the Move


Do you have a lot of artwork to handle during your move? Are you worried about protecting your art from damage? A mobile storage unit is a great place for art that needs to be stable and secure. Most likely your art is as valuable as some of your most prized belongings. Having a mobile storage unit delivered to the place you are moving out of means that you can control how your artwork is packed. You will want to wrap your artwork in protective parchment paper, glassine, or fabric, and then pack it inside a specialized box (such as a mirror box) with bubble wrap or packing foam. Carefully store the artwork upright--never place it flat, as it can collapse. Then you can have your mobile unit delivered to either a storage warehouse (opt for climate-controlled) or to your new home. Hopefully you will have finished painting your walls and your artwork will provide that final touch to brighten up your new home.
