FAQs

What steps do you take to make sure your deliveries are eco-friendly?

We use recycled (and recyclable) packaging and also use electric vehicles for the delivery itself where possible to minimise environmental impact. For longer distance deliveries and overseas shipping, we offset the carbon to maintain a carbon-neutral service for antique shipping and art delivery.

How can I track my delivery?

All our services are fully trackable. Once your item is dispatched, you’ll receive a tracking number that you can use to monitor the progress of your delivery.

What modes of transport do you use for deliveries?

We offer deliveries via sea, road, and air. The mode of transport used will depend on the nature of the item and the destination.
