Buying art online: crating, international shipping and insurance

How a large-format painting travels from Guadalajara and what door-to-door insurance covers.

Shipping isn't a logistics footnote: it's part of the purchase. These are the decisions that determine whether the work arrives intact.

Crating

Stretched work: wooden crate with foam and corner protection. Rolled in a rigid tube only when the destination requires it, with professional stretching on arrival.

Shipping and customs

Domestic Mexico: 3–7 business days. International: 7–15 days with original-artwork documentation, which in many countries means reduced duty.

Insurance

Declared-value door-to-door coverage, with photographic reports before and after crating.
