The Service
Art moving built around the pieces you own
Elite Movers & Packing Services provides art moving and fine-art crating for private-estate collections and museum work, with moves confined to California. Its documented work includes fine art, antiques, oversized gilt mirrors, and framed panels, giving you a relevant starting point when discussing a collection that needs more than ordinary household packing.
For an art-moving quote, describe each piece, its dimensions, the pickup and delivery locations, and any access restrictions or handling instructions from the collection owner. Include photographs of frames and fragile details so the conversation covers both the artwork and the practical route through the property.
Ventura, Oxnard, Camarillo, Thousand Oaks, Santa Barbara, and Montecito are among Elite’s service areas. Call (805) 697-6220 to discuss the inventory, packing and crating requirements, and your preferred move date and timing before agreeing the scope.
What We Move
Fine art, antiques, and museum collections
Antiques and gilt mirrors
Elite’s photographed work includes antiques and oversized gilt mirrors. Identify fragile ornament, unusual shapes, or existing damage before the move so these details are part of the handling discussion.
Museum collections
Elite does museum work as well as private-estate moves. Share the collection inventory, collection contact, access arrangements, and delivery requirements when requesting an art-moving quote.
Our Quote Process
What to share before your art move
- 01
Describe the collection
Send an item list, dimensions, photographs, and pickup and delivery locations within California. Include the move date and any collection-specific handling instructions.
- 02
Discuss access and packing
Flag stairs, narrow doors, elevators, loading restrictions, and oversized frames. Ask which items need crating, which materials will be used, and what preparation you should do.
- 03
Confirm the scope
Agree the packing, transport, and delivery requirements before booking. Keep any special handling instructions with the inventory so the art move and the wider household move are clearly distinguished.

Questions Before Booking
Art moving FAQs
Does Elite move museum art?
Yes. Elite Movers & Packing Services does museum work. Contact Elite with the inventory, the pickup and delivery addresses within California, and the collection’s handling requirements to discuss the scope of your move.
Can Elite crate fine art and oversized mirrors?
Yes. Elite’s documented work includes crating and moving fine art, antiques, oversized gilt mirrors, and framed panels in private estates. Share photographs and dimensions so the team can discuss packing and crating for your items.
Do you move art from Santa Barbara and Montecito?
Santa Barbara and Montecito are Elite service areas, alongside Ventura, Oxnard, Camarillo, and Thousand Oaks. These are service areas served from Ventura, rather than separate Elite office locations. Art transport is within California.
What information helps with an art-moving quote?
Prepare an item list, dimensions, photographs, pickup and delivery addresses, your preferred date, and access details. Mention stairs, elevators, oversized pieces, fragile frames, and any instructions from the artist, collection owner, or museum.
What should I confirm for valuable or sensitive art?
Ask Elite to confirm suitable packing, transport conditions, delivery arrangements, and the valuation terms for your particular collection before booking. Share any temperature, humidity, conservation, or insurer requirements at the quote stage rather than assuming they are included.
