For enquiries, call Paul Garner on +44 7720 292221 or email paul@garnersantiques.co.uk.

Collection, delivery & storage
We provide careful, point-to-point transport for art, antiques and collectables. This includes property-to-property delivery, auction to buyer collections and privates sales.
Every job is handled personally, with attention to packing, lifting, transport and placement. The focus is on discretion, care and reliability rather than volume or speed.
Short-term storage is available by arrangement, which can be useful where timings don't quite line up between collection and delivery.
This service includes:
- Collection and delivery of art, antiques and collectables
- Auction to buyer transport and private sale collections
- Property-to-property delivery
- Careful handling of fragile, valuable or awkward items
- Short term storage by arrangement
Picture hanging & placement
We offer careful picture hanging and placement as part of our collection and delivery service, or by arrangement.
This includes assessing walls types (modern and period homes), using appropriate fixings, and taking time over positioning so works sit comfortably and securely in the space. This is particularly helpful following an auction purchase, a move, or when items are arriving at a new home.
Picture hanging support includes:
- Suitable fixings for different wall types
- Hanging single works or groups
- Help with positions, spacing and alignment
- Discreet, tidy work
Restoration & conservation
Where appropriate, we can also assist with restoration and conservation work, either as part of a wider job or by arrangement.
This maybe useful where an item needs attention post purchase, before display, after transport or as part of a longer-term care.
More information about restoration services can be found here: https://garnersantiques.co.uk/pages/restoration-services
Who this service is for:
- Private collectors
- Auction buyers and sellers
- Dealers
- Estates and downsizing situations
