Measure and inspect
We look at the frame, glazing, protrusions, corners, surface sensitivity and overall dimensions.
Artwork packing • Charlotte, NC
Artwork packing for frames, prints and pieces you do not want rubbing against cardboard
Artwork needs protection from pressure, abrasion, corner damage and movement. We build the package around the piece instead of dropping it into the closest box size.
BEST FOR
- Framed artwork
- Canvas art
- Prints and posters
- Decorative wall pieces
- Gallery or auction purchases
- Multiple-piece art shipments
The process
A packing plan before the tape comes out
Create the protection layers
The packing plan can include surface protection, corner protection, cushioning, fitted cartons and an additional outer carton where appropriate.
Pack for the destination
We prepare the piece for the actual journey, whether it is a local handoff, parcel shipment or a larger project that requires a different solution.
1
Framed art is more than a flat object
Frames concentrate impact at corners and edges, while glazing and decorative surfaces add another failure point. A good pack keeps pressure away from sensitive faces and stops the piece moving inside the box.

Several pieces? Quote them as a project
If you are shipping a collection, event display or multiple framed pieces, send the count and rough sizes. We can plan materials and workflow before you bring everything in.
Quote the real job
Send the quantity, rough dimensions, value and deadline.
For unusual or valuable items, we may ask for photos or an in-person inspection before finalizing the packing plan.
Questions
Before you bring the project in
Can you pack artwork I sold online?+
Yes. Bring the piece and destination details. We can quote packing and, when appropriate, shipping as one job.
Do you build wooden crates?+
Pack Charlotte is focused on parcel-ready custom packing and bulk projects. If a piece requires museum-grade handling, climate-controlled transport or a fabricated wooden crate, we will tell you before accepting the job so the item can go to the right specialist.
Can you pack several framed pieces at once?+
Yes. Multi-piece art projects are welcome. Send approximate dimensions, quantities and your deadline so we can plan materials.
