TORONTO'S ART PACKING SPECIALISTS

Careful hands, the right materials, and zero shortcuts

Packing art is not the same as packing boxes

A framed canvas, a large wall piece, or a delicate print needs more than a layer of bubble wrap and some tape. It needs the right materials, the right technique, and a team that understands how much these pieces matter. Whether you're a homeowner moving a treasured collection, an interior designer relocating client pieces, or a gallery preparing works for transport, Six Moving brings the expertise to pack every piece properly.

Built for art, not just moving

We use professional art packing materials and purpose-built crates designed specifically for wall art, canvases, framed pieces, and picture frames of all sizes. Our standard art carriers and frames handle most pieces with ease, and for larger or more complex works, we can build custom crates tailored to the exact dimensions and requirements of the piece. Every item is packed securely, labelled clearly, and handled with the level of care that valuable art demands.

For homeowners and design professionals alike

Our art packing service is built for clients who take their art seriously. Whether you're moving a handful of pieces from one room to another or coordinating the packing of an entire design project, we tailor the service to what you actually need. Reach out and tell us what you're working with, and we'll put together a plan.

White glove service available

For pieces that need an elevated level of handling and care, our white-glove service is available as a separate offering. Contact us for more details.

Our goal is simple

To make sure every piece of art you own arrives at its destination in exactly the same condition it left. Packed right, protected fully, and handled with complete care throughout.
