High Value Antique / Artwork Crating Services

High-Value Antique & Artwork Crating Services

When it comes to art transport and moving irreplaceable pieces such as fine art, antiques, sculptures, collectibles, and other fragile valuables, you need a mover you can trust. At Metropolitan Moving & Storage, we understand the precision and expertise required to ensure these items are packed, crated, and delivered safely.

Because we work with many luxury homes throughout the D.C. region each year, we frequently assist clients who own high-value and highly fragile pieces. To deliver the highest level of protection, we partner with one of the most respected museum-grade crating companies in Washington, D.C.—the same experts who prepare exhibits for major museums throughout the area.

How It Works
  • On-Site Assessment: Our specialized partner visits your home to evaluate your artwork or antique items and provide a tailored crating estimate.
  • Museum-Quality Crating: Custom crates are built to exact specifications using professional, archival-safe materials.
  • Seamless Coordination: On moving day, our team works hand-in-hand with the crating specialists to ensure each piece is prepared, packed, and transported with meticulous care.
  • White-Glove Handling: Every step of the move is designed to protect your investment—from packing to delivery and placement in your new home.

This partnership allows Metropolitan Moving & Storage to deliver a consistently exceptional experience, no matter how delicate or valuable your items may be.

Your Valuables Deserve Elite Care

If you have specialty, fragile, or high-value items that require professional crating, reach out to our sales team. We’ll be happy to schedule a consultation and provide a detailed estimate.

Metropolitan Moving & Storage is owned by three native Washingtonians. Our experienced staff takes pride in providing every customer with unmatched service, precision, and peace of mind.

This is another major reason why Metropolitan is able to provide such a consistent product to clients no matter what their needs may be. If you have any items that need special attention, please contact our sales staff to discuss making arrangements for us to come out and provide an estimate for you.

Reviews

I cannot express with words how amazing they are. We had a last minute emergency in which we could reserve the loading dock for 2 hours and they were able to accommodate by sending more moving crew to make it possible. Special thanks to Jorge Guerra and his crew for making the move super efficient! They made sure all the furnitures were fully wrapped for protection, asked us where each boxes / furnitures go and did a final walk through to make sure everything is good to go. I would highly recommend this company to everyone and would be working with them in the future
