The questions collectors, galleries, designers, and institutions most often ask before entrusting their artwork to our care.
Pricing varies based on the size of your collection, how long you need storage, and which additional services you require. A single piece in short-term transit housing is priced differently than an entire collection held in long-term safekeeping. Packing and crating, transportation, installation, and cataloging are available as add-on services priced by scope.
Every engagement begins with a conversation. We talk through what you need to store, how long you expect to store it, and any special handling or access requirements. From there we provide a clear quote tailored to your needs, usually within one business day.
Yes. Our Los Angeles facility is a museum-grade, climate-controlled environment designed specifically for the long-term preservation of fine art. Temperature is held steady at 70 degrees Fahrenheit and humidity at 50 percent relative humidity, the museum standard for optimum storage.

Holding conditions steady prevents the stress points that develop when materials expand and contract against each other.
