Specialized Antique Moving Services

Expert Antique Packing & Protection

Our antique movers use museum-quality packing materials and techniques specifically designed for fragile, valuable items. We wrap each piece individually using acid-free paper, premium bubble wrap, and custom crating when necessary. Victorian furniture, china cabinets, glass collections, oil paintings, and delicate ceramics all receive custom handling plans. Hansen Bros Moving & Storage’s inventory tracking ensures your antiques remain accounted for from pickup to delivery.

Climate-Controlled Storage for Antiques

Moving antiques sometimes requires temporary or long-term storage. Our climate-controlled units maintain consistent temperature and humidity levels, preventing warping, cracking, and deterioration of wood, upholstery, and finishes. Whether you need storage for a few weeks during your transition or several months while your new home is being prepared, Hansen Bros provides secure, monitored facilities that protect your valuables from environmental damage and theft.

Estate and Collection Moving

Large estate moves and antique collections demand coordination and expertise. Our antique movers handle multi-room collections, entire estates, and specialized items like pianos, chandeliers, and architectural elements. Hansen Bros Moving & Storage coordinates logistics, manages inventory, and works with appraisers and insurance companies to ensure proper valuation and documentation of your valuable pieces throughout the moving process.

Long-Distance Antique Moving

Moving antiques across state lines or throughout the Pacific Northwest requires experience with interstate regulations, proper vehicle selection, and extended-care protocols. Our long-distance antique movers use enclosed trailers, secure tie-down systems, and temperature-controlled transport. We provide regular updates, flexible scheduling, and a white-glove delivery service that places each item exactly where you want it in your new home.
