Packing and Shipping Antiques from Colorado Springs

Shipping Family Heirlooms or One-of-a-Kind Works of Art

Pak Mail takes special care with antiques – high value or simply sentimental, sturdy or extremely fragile. Antiques can be family heirlooms, furniture, paintings, framed family photos, crafts, or sculptures. Galleries, museums, auction houses, senior move managers, and individual family members have welcomed Pak Mail’s expertise in packing and shipping antiques from Colorado Springs since 1996.

Our personal approach means that we clearly explain your packing, shipping and insurance coverage options to give you the best value for your shipping situation. Pak Mail professionals determine the appropriate packing and shipping for each antique by assessing:

• its fragility,
• its value,
• the shipping distance, and
• when you would like it to arrive.

When shipping antiques we recommend the following:

• Keep purchase receipts or appraisals as evidence of value.
• If there is no evidence indicating value, seek to have it documented with an appraisal or a published price for a similar item.
• Take several photos of the item to document its condition.
