Yes. MoveNXT prepares museum-grade export crates, condition reports and itemised inventories before artwork leaves origin. Crate type follows survey — paintings, sculpture, fragile objects and exhibition pieces are scoped separately.
Urgent exhibition loans and high-value pieces often move by air; larger collection lots may sail in dedicated or shared sea freight after survey. Your art manager confirms mode, transit windows and insurance options in writing.
MoveNXT coordinates documentation and broker handoffs with destination partners. Import and export rules vary by country and change over time — we do not provide legal or tax advice; your manager outlines partner requirements at quote stage.
Fine art moves as a dedicated shipment — not mixed into standard household cartons. For general relocation on a similar corridor, see international household moving or keep art on this fine art lane with a separate inventory.
