I am writing to share some important information regarding the qualities that define a true fine art transportation company and to highlight ANR Transport LLC's commitment to these standards.
A genuine fine art company is distinguished by several key factors:
* It possesses a fine art insurance policy.
* It adheres to museum methodologies for handling, packing, and transporting art.
* It utilizes specialized equipment such as air-ride, climate-controlled, alarmed vehicles with dual drivers/art handlers.
Many companies claim to be fine art movers, but what sets ANR Transport LLC apart is our fine art policy and strict adherence to museum methodologies. Our vehicles are equipped with dual drivers/art handlers, are climate-controlled, air-ride, securely locked, alarmed, and continuously monitored.
It's crucial to understand the risks of using non-compliant companies. If your art were stolen or damaged, and your insurance company discovered that the transporter did not follow museum methodologies, used solo drivers, or lacked climate-controlled transit, your shipment might not be covered by your policy.
ANR Transport LLC prides itself on following museum methodologies, providing dual drivers, climate-controlled art spaces during transit, and secure, alarmed vehicles. We are dedicated to being good stewards of artwork and antiquities, preserving them for future generations.
We recently had a client choose another company that was $117 less than our estimate. Upon verifying, we discovered that this company was not a true fine art company; they used non-climate-controlled vans and solo drivers. We could not match their price because compromising on these standards puts your artwork at risk. Is $117 truly worth risking your art's safety, proper handling, and insurance coverage? Fine art insurance policies from museums, galleries, and private collectors, including those from Lloyds of London, demand the use of true fine art companies that adhere to museum methodologies to mitigate risk. Failure to do so could result in denied claims and loss of coverage.
While times may be challenging, as stewards of art and antiquities, we have a duty to protect these valuable assets.
I urge everyone to thoroughly vet any company used for fine art transport and storage. Verify they hold a fine art policy, which typically mandates dual drivers/art handlers and climate-controlled vehicles for art in transit. As I was once told, people often underestimate the true cost of owning art, which includes ensuring its safe transport and storage with a true fine art company to maintain insurance validity and prevent significant risks to their collection.
In closing, ANR Transport LLC adheres to museum methodologies and is a preferred shipper for Lloyds of London and other Chubb fine art policies, a distinction earned through rigorous checks to secure our own Lloyds of London shipper/storage policy. We also ensure our employees are continuously trained in the latest methodologies. Please consider ANR Transport for your next shipment or storage needs.
