Protecting framed art during a move requires careful wrapping to avoid damage. Using the right materials keeps your artwork safe and intact.
Packing framed art needs soft cushioning and sturdy outer layers. Start with acid-free art bags like ARTPAKK to guard against moisture and scratches. Use foam wrap rolls or foam pouches, such as enKo Foam Wrap or 16”x24” foam sleeves, to cushion the frame and glass.
Secure corners with adjustable cardboard protectors like Mardili’s pack to prevent dents. Wrap everything tightly with TICONN stretch film to hold padding in place. For extra protection, place wrapped art in Bankers Box Medium moving boxes designed for frames up to 40 inches. Fill any gaps with newsprint paper sheets or bubble wrap, such as Duck Max Strength Bubble Cushioning Wrap, to avoid shifting during transport. This method ensures your framed art arrives undamaged.
