Transportation of Fragile Art and Antiques
Transporting fragile art and antiques requires a highly specialised courier service to ensure the careful handling of these valuable items. Whether it's a priceless painting, a delicate sculpture, or a cherished antique, selecting the right courier is essential. Speedy Freight offers a dedicated service designed specifically for such sensitive deliveries.
Our expert couriers are trained in the intricacies of moving delicate items, ensuring that every item is transported with the highest level of care. Whether you’re an art gallery, museum, or private collector, Speedy Freight's tailored solutions ensure that your fragile art and antiques arrive in perfect condition, preserving their integrity and value.
How Does Your Courier Handle Fragile Deliveries?
Another important aspect to consider is how your courier handles fragile deliveries, specifically whether the driver remains the same throughout the journey or if the service is shared. With most couriers, the driver may change between collection and delivery. However, with Speedy Freight’s dedicated courier service, the driver who collects your items also delivers them. This ensures your items are always in the best hands.
While shared courier services can be cheaper, they can compromise the safety of your items. At Speedy Freight, we offer dedicated services, meaning your courier service is never shared with anyone else. Your fragile items won’t be at risk of bumping into other boxes, ensuring they remain in perfect condition. This dedicated service also means faster delivery as we don’t make other stops along the way.
Transporting Fragile Goods by Courier
The most crucial aspect of using a courier for fragile items is ensuring the security of the service. When you entrust your fragile items to a courier, you want to guarantee they arrive in the same condition they left.
At Speedy Freight, we prioritise the safety of your fragile items through two main ways: using a dedicated vehicle and leveraging our team's expertise.
Our wide range of vehicles ensures that you can choose the perfect one for your needs. Whether it’s a small van for smaller valuables, a mid-size long wheelbase vehicle for heavier items, or an 18-tonne truck for larger or bulk items, we have the right vehicle for your goods.
Our team understands the Highway Code's rules and regulations for transporting goods, ensuring your items are handled safely. Our drivers secure the consignment in place within the vehicle, and thanks to Speedy Freight’s network of local branches, they have in-depth knowledge of the area, guaranteeing an efficient journey and quick delivery.
