Artwork removals
Moving art requires specific skills, attention to detail, and an approach that protects the cultural, historical, and economic value of the works. Art removals are one of the most delicate tasks in the specialized transport sector, and for many years, Prealpina Traslochi has offered a dedicated service for public bodies, museums, cultural institutions, galleries, and private collectors.
Each operation is handled by expert personnel trained to handle sensitive materials and unique items, which require professional packaging, safe handling techniques, and suitable vehicles for secure transportation. Our goal is to ensure that each item arrives at its destination in the same condition in which it was delivered.
Special packaging and professional handling
The success of art removals depends on the ability to preserve every detail. That's why we directly oversee every phase of the process, creating custom packaging for paintings, sculptures, fragile objects, and valuable materials.
We use professional protective systems such as:
- custom-made cases with cushioned interiors
- shock-absorbent materials for delicate surfaces
- multi-layer protection for particularly fragile elements
- specific packaging for three-dimensional works
Each move is entrusted to qualified technicians, who apply controlled methods to minimize vibrations, oscillations, and risks during all phases of the transfer.
No detail is overlooked
When transporting works of art, overlooking even the smallest detail could compromise the integrity of the piece. That's why we operate with an approach that prioritizes precision, care, and complete safety.
After packing, we also take care of repositioning the work in its new location, ensuring that optimal conditions for placement, maintenance, and stability are met.
Each phase of the service is documented and planned to ensure transparency and control, so the client can rely on a competent and responsible partner.
Management of procedures with authorities, customs and Fine Arts
When an artwork crosses national borders or is part of protected collections, specific administrative procedures must be followed. Prealpina Traslochi offers comprehensive support in managing the paperwork at the Fine Arts Offices, including import and export documentation and the customs procedures required for the movement of goods. Our experience allows us to handle all necessary authorizations, including those related to the movement of protected artworks, ensuring a process compliant with current regulations. Careful management of these formalities helps avoid delays or administrative issues, ensuring a smooth and perfectly controlled transfer.
