Art Shipping suggestion needed.
Does anyone know an art mover who makes runs via truck from New York to Florida? I may need to send a few paintings from Brooklyn down to Florida for a September show at a university.

We used a company called DAD when I worked for Barry at University Galleries. http://www.nydad.com/
Does anyone recommend an art handler to take big paintings from NYC to Santa Barbara? I am asking for a friend. Thanks!

These are companies I know of (not recommendations but rather a place to start): http://itransport4 u.com/ http://nydad.com/ http://www.artexfas.com/ and http://www.atelier4.com/ They all offer different levels of service and are most likely priced accordingly. Maybe someone else can give an actual recommendation.

hi everyone! I am looking to have some artwork sent from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, does anyone have recommendations for people they have used before? Thanks a bunch!

You could try http://itransport4 u.com/ . I used that company once successfully and another friend did as well. Also since the artwork is going from one big city to another, you could check to see if LA has any art shuttle vans that regularly go to Las Vegas. Just Google LA Art shuttle
