Another 5 Star Review!

in General

At the risk of tempting fate, here another 5 star review adding to our never, ever broken streak of five star reviews on Google (75), Facebook (5) and Yelp (45)...yup, we're a little proud!

Ana at Pak Mail was terrific. Thorough and professional in every respect. All the quotes I received were accurate and did not change form the time of agreement. I could to have expected a smother process and a more professional outcome. Everything that was shipped to three different locations arrived in excellent condition and earlier than expected. What impressed me the most was the great line of communication throughout the entire process. I knew every step of the process from start to finish!

Yes, We Ship Art!

in General

One of our favorite local artists, Vanessa German has two large art installations travelling the country this year. One of them “sometimes.we.cannot.be.with.our.bodies.” was last seen at Pittsburgh’s Mattress Factory Museum in 2017 and is now at The Fralin Museum of Art at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville until July 7th. We picked-up, wrapped, and crated the ten life-size sculptures along with many ancillary pieces. We then delivered the pieces on a dedicated truck.
