September art shuttle: route details
After the shuttle sets off from NYC, packed with art shipments awaiting delivery to new owners or temporary lenders, it heads to Illinois, where it will make scheduled stops in Chicago and Northbrook. The next state on the route is Wisconsin, where the September art shuttle has planned stops in Green Bay and Sun Prairie. After Wisconsin, it will head to Missouri, with a scheduled stop in Kansas City.
Colorado is the next destination on the art shuttle’s route. Here, the shuttle will visit Denver and Aspen before continuing to Utah, with scheduled stops in Salt Lake City and Park City. From there, it will move on to California. The list of California stops includes Sacramento, Kentfield, San Francisco, Oakland, Malibu, Los Angeles, Gardena, and Monrovia. The shuttle will spend several days in California to make sure all clients receive their shipments and to accommodate scheduled pickups before continuing back east.
After California, the art shuttle heads to Texas, with scheduled stops in Austin and Dallas. It then continues to Virginia, where it will stop in Reston, before reaching the final point on the current route, Washington, DC. From there, the shuttle will head back to New York. However, the schedule and dates are subject to slight changes upon request.
Why rely on consolidated art shipping services?
The benefit of consolidated art shipping is evident for artists, private art collectors, galleries, auction houses, and even museums. It meets the needs of most clients for a cost-effective, predictable, regular shipping service. This option is particularly practical when only one or two works need to be transported for an exhibition, returned from a loan, or delivered to another destination, making dedicated transportation unnecessary for smaller shipments.
Consolidated art shipping services work perfectly in these cases, helping artists send their works to buyers, collectors receive their new purchases, and art entities move art throughout the country without mounting logistics expenditures. All shipments are handled by well-trained professionals with a thorough understanding of the safety precautions involved in transporting art. This makes consolidated shipping a practical and reliable option for moving artwork across the country.
