Fine Art Logistics Services
Assured Arts sets the bar high for fine art logistics. From expert couriers and art handlers to creative packing, crating, installation and storage solutions. From a single painting being hand carried for a buyer upon sale at the auction house, to multiple crates on an art shuttle heading across the country. Our standards never wane, regardless of what service is being provided or to whom it’s being provided.
