Services.

Transportation.

Waypoint provides secure, reliable transport for artworks — from individual pieces to entire collections — locally, regionally, and internationally. Our satellite-tracked fleet features climate-controlled, air-ride vehicles to ensure protection in transit.

Every shipment is handled by trained art technicians who maintain the highest standards of care and discretion on-site and in transit. Valuation coverage can be added upon request.

International Shipping.

Through our trusted global network, Waypoint manages every aspect of international art transport. Our import and export capabilities include door-to-door airfreight, FCL and LCL ocean freight, and full container receiving and loading.

We handle all documentation and compliance requirements, from customs clearance and carnets to permits, customs bonds, and merchandise processing fees. Our team can coordinate on-site supervision, arrange temporary storage at our secure facility, oversee installation at the destination, and manage crate disposal when the project is complete.

Shuttle.

Waypoint offers cost-effective shared transport options for individual works and full collections along the East Coast. Our frequent shuttles connect Boston, New York, and the Hamptons.

For clients in South Florida, we operate a monthly New York–Miami shuttle, the “Fritz” route, that maintains the same professional handling and secure, climate-controlled transport as our exclusive-use services.

Every shuttle is staffed by trained art handlers and features satellite tracking, climate control, and air-ride suspension to ensure artworks arrive safely.

Storage.

Waypoint Fine Art Services offers secure, climate-controlled storage in New York City, Boston, and Miami, with facilities designed to protect artworks in optimal conditions year-round. Our spaces feature 24/7 monitored security and controlled access.

We provide flexible scheduling for receiving and releasing works, with loading docks that can accommodate large-scale pieces. Every item is bar-coded, inventoried, and tracked in our internal database, enabling full collection management.

Our professional staff offers expert unpacking, condition reporting, and photographic documentation. Whether for short-term staging or long-term collection care, we ensure the highest standards of care.

Crating.

Waypoint designs and builds custom crates in-house to protect artworks of any shape or size. Each crate is engineered to preserve the unique characteristics of the piece and to perform under the demands of travel and handling.

Our crate shop produces:

  • Museum-quality cases

  • Multi-use travel crates

  • Single-shipment crates

  • Travel frames

We use ISPM-15 compliant lumber and follow all international shipping requirements, including IPPC stamping for export compliance.

Installation.

Waypoint provides expert installation for artworks of all types — from framed works and delicate works on paper to large-scale sculptures and complex multi-piece arrangements. We work closely with clients, designers, and curators, we ensure each installation enhances the artwork’s visual impact while meeting structural and environmental requirements.
