Calculation of delivery cost in 10 minutes

We value your time. To find out the exact price of logistics, you do not need to fill out long questionnaires. Our manager will calculate an individual rate in just 10 minutes!

For the most accurate calculation, provide the following parameters:

  • Quantity and dimensions: How many paintings or objects need to be transported? 
  • Write their exact dimensions (length, width, height).
  • Formatting: Specify whether the paintings are in baguette frames, stretched on a stretcher, or rolled up in a tube.
  • Cargo description: What exactly are we transporting? What is the condition of the object, its actual weight, and its declared estimated value? Location: From which point do we need to pick up the cargo (country, city, exact address, and floor)? 
  • Pickup time: Days and times when it will be convenient for our representative or courier to arrive and pick up the shipment.

How does the delivery process from abroad work?

Our foreign logistics partners have a developed network of modern warehouses, their own fleet of specialized trucks, and a staff of professional drivers. Depending on your needs and budget, we offer two formats for cargo pickup: 

  • Delivery through a consolidation warehouse: In some cases, it is enough for the sender to independently bring and hand over the item to our partner warehouse abroad. After that, our representative receives the parcel, processes it, and delivers it to Ukraine. 
  • Door-to-door service: For maximum comfort, our driver can arrive at your specified address in Europe, the USA, or Asia and personally pick up the item (from an apartment, artist's studio, or gallery) for its subsequent transportation to Ukraine.

Packaging requirements: safety first

The main condition for successful international transit transportation — the parcel must be packed with the highest possible quality. Works of art are subjected to vibrations during flights and ground transfers, which is why professional packaging — is the foundation of art logistics. We develop and implement various types of protective packaging that ensure the 100% safe delivery of every art object entrusted to us. Regardless of whether you pack the cargo yourself abroad under our guidance, or order this service from our partners, the packaging must guarantee the safety of the canvas, frame, or fragile elements of the sculpture.

Customs clearance: personal belongings and commercial batches

International delivery is subject to strict customs rules.

  • Personal belongings: The main condition for providing our basic logistics service — we can promptly help with the delivery of personal belongings that have a low estimated value. 
  • Commercial cargo: The legal import of works of art from Europe and other regions requires compliance with customs legislation. If you need to transport a large number of items (for example, an entire gallery exhibition) or a commercial batch, the law requires a different customs clearance procedure. This process requires more time, specific documentation, and increased attention. 

Our in-house legal department is always ready to provide professional support and help properly execute all international documents that allow legally transporting an art object from abroad to Ukraine.
