Our comprehensive insurance, specialist packing materials, and flexible storage solutions cater to individual needs, whether moving locally or nationally. With BAR-accredited standards, we handle everything from small apartments to large estates with professionalism and care.

Our international moving services cover worldwide destinations, supported by a global network of accredited agents. We manage all aspects including packing to international standards, customs documentation, and secure transportation by sea or air. BAR-certified processes and 25 years of experience ensure compliance with destination-specific regulations, making overseas relocations seamless and stress-free for residential and commercial clients.
Antique Shipping
Specialising in antique and fine art shipping since 1994, we use ISPM 15-compliant crates and climate-controlled packaging to protect valuable items. Our team has safely transported over 25,000 pieces globally, offering door-to-door service, customs clearance assistance, and tailored insurance. Regular collections from UK and European antique fairs ensure timely delivery for dealers and private clients.
Storage Solutions
Our purpose-built storage facility offers short and long-term solutions with BAR-standard security, including CCTV and alarm systems. Containers are packed at your home with full inventory tracking, and we provide flexible access options. Ideal for bridging moves, renovations, or overseas shipments, our climate-controlled environment protects furniture, antiques, and sensitive items during transit or extended storage.
Bespoke Crate Making
Our in-house crate-making department designs ISPM 15-certified wooden crates for irregular or fragile items like sculptures and pianos. Using precision engineering, we create custom-fit solutions that meet international shipping regulations. This service ensures maximum protection during transit, particularly for antiques and high-value goods requiring specialist handling and documentation for global destinations.
