White glove service in Los Angeles is a term which is often used to define shipping of goods. It is used when something is being treated with extreme care; the term is often used interchangeably with “treat with kid gloves.” In most cases both these terms are used when the objects to be moved are very expensive or extremely fragile. Although the focus is on the care and attention that is placed on the movement of goods, it can just as well be used when the focus is on the owner. People or corporations that own very expensive collectibles, antiques, heirlooms, etc also need to be given white glove service in Los Angeles as they are obviously very concerned with the handling of their precious cargo and they need to be made comfortable in the knowledge that everything will be done to ensure safe arrival of the shipment.
Moving expensive or irreplaceable objects is not simply a matter of trucking them from one place to another, far from it. The service begins in the original location and does not end until it is safely delivered, unpacked and set-up.
Although shipping anything takes care and attention, shipping antiques and other heirloom pieces requires special care that is often only available from companies who specialize in crating, storing and shipping delicate pieces that can be damaged very easily in transit.
There are numerous ways to protect different works, shipping an antique cast iron stove is going to take a totally different approach than shipping an antique Ming vase. Rarely would anyone who owns very valuable pieces even consider packing the objects himself, it is always better to use the services of a professional. In many cases it requires specially formed inserts to cradle the object and to resist any movement at all, in other cases special materials must be used to avoid vermin infestation while in transit.
As important as it is to make sure the objects are packed perfectly for shipment, it is equally important to ensure that the proper shippers are selected as well as the companies that are responsible for the ultimate delivery and unpacking at the receiving end. In many instances, art for example, must be crated, shipped, unpacked and professional hung. This degree of care and attention is the epitome of white glove service in Los Angeles.
White glove service in Los Angeles is more than just a saying when you entrust your shipment to ArtPACK, it is the standard under which the company operates.
