Fine Art Installation, Transport, Collections Management & Logistics
What does a fine art logistics company do?
A fine art logistics company moves, packs, installs, documents, and stores artwork using conservation-grade methods — climate-controlled transport, custom crating, museum-standard installation, written condition reports, and collection cataloging. The difference from a moving company is not the truck. It is that every person touching the work is a trained art handler, and every step leaves a record.
That is the standard I was held to for twenty years as a museum curator, and it is the standard Arterial brings to galleries, museums, designers, advisors, estates, and private collectors across the Intermountain West.
Founder-curator: art handling, packing, installation, and high-level museum exhibitions.
Exhibitions project-managed per year — concept, text, layout, and install, start to finish.
A decade of registrar experience on the team, plus 15 years of professional truck driving.
Trained handlers on every job — our own crew, never subcontracted out.
I have run installation crews for two decades. Every job is crewed by people who have done this inside museums — not a moving company with a blanket and a hand truck.
Six ways we move and care for artwork.
Fine Art Shipping & Transport
Shared monthly shuttle loops and exclusive climate-controlled charters, crewed by trained art handlers — not movers. Boise to Sun Valley, Jackson Hole, Park City, and many more.
See how shipping works →Art Installation
Level, secure, and still right twenty years from now. Site survey, a hanging plan to scale, engineered cleats, and seismic hardware. Our handlers treat every wall and every object with the same care an institution expects — one artwork or an entire exhibition, you get the same standard of service.
See how we install →Collections Management
Object-by-object cataloging, written condition reporting, and location tracking — the record your insurer, advisor, conservator, and heirs all work from.
Inside the cataloging process →Packing & Crating
Soft-pack, travel frames, and museum-grade custom crates specified piece by piece — never by default, and never too large or too awkward.
How we spec a crate →Curatorial & Advisory
Our founder utilizes 20 years of museum curation experience to bring your dreams to life. Exhibition planning, placement, acquisition guidance, and interpretive writing.
What curatorial counsel covers →Climate-Controlled Storage
A purpose-built Boise facility, opening soon — stable climate, racked painting screens, monitored security, and object-level tracking. Waitlist members get first access.
Join the waitlist →Climate-controlled storage, opening in Boise.
We are building the facility the region has never had: stable temperature and humidity, racked painting screens, monitored security and fire suppression, and object-level location tracking tied to your catalog. For collections between homes, exhibitions, or generations.
Waitlist members get first access to space and founding rates. Until then, we're glad to advise on interim options.
Servicing the Intermountain West.
Based in Boise — we are Boise's first dedicated art handling company — running monthly loops through Sun Valley, Park City, Jackson Hole, among other major cities of the West, and sending exclusive trucks anywhere in between.
If your work is going somewhere we don't yet run, ask us anyway.
