Welcome to Enclosures International Corporation, Palo Alto

Welcome to Enclosures International, your full-service, family-owned specialty item packing, storage and transportation business for 45 years. Since our company's founding in 1977, antique dealers, collectors, curators, interior designers, and auction houses in Palo Alto and worldwide have trusted our highly-trained professionals to handle their their valuables, including antiques, electronics, fine art, pianos, decorative art, furniture, musical instruments, auction items, and heirlooms, with the utmost care and attention, and like the works of art they are.

Our customers can trust our experts to treat their items respectfully, and to give each item the attention it needs so that it is transported safely and undamaged to its final location. Our customers can rest assured that we take every precaution to ensure your package's safe travel every step of the way, from offering secure warehouses to store your items to transporting them in air-ride trucks. We can even create custom-made crates, and craft unique packing solutions to protect even your most delicate items from damage. That's why leading auction houses like Sotheby's, Christie's, and Bonhams & Butterfields have entrusted their items to our care, and why we have been a leader in the shipping of specialty items for more than four decades.

At Enclosures International, we provide the following services for your convenience:

Crating & Packing Services

We specialize in packing objects that require unique handling – from the extremely fragile, such as paintings and antique vases, to those items that are too big, heavy or odd-shaped for standard packaging, such as chandeliers, pianos and sculptures. Whether you are looking to transport irreplaceable items, move a collection, or store the contents of an entire estate, Enclosures International's moving specialists are readily available to offer expert advice, exceptional customer service, and cost-effective, customized packing options, from constructing custom-sized boxes to crafting unique solutions for the transport of your delicate items.

Shipping Services

With 45 years of experience on staff, Enclosures International's shipping professionals have the expertise to arrange shipping to and from anywhere in the world, and we can help you with all of your shipping needs, including pick-up, packaging, weighing, documentation, transportation, and tracking. From semi-monthly Northern California-to-Southern California shuttle services, to international air and ocean freights, we also have the resources and network to reliably and quickly transport your valuables.

Shuttle Services

Enclosures International has established a reliable network of inexpensive shuttle services for the safe and secure transport of fragile, cumbersome, and highly valuable objects. Our semi-monthly service operates on a route with multiple stops along California's coast, including San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, San Diego, and the greater Bay Area. Upon delivery, we offer standby service in case installation or rearranging assistance is needed.

Installation Services

At Enclosures International, we don't just transport art; we also are installation artists. For 45 years, curators, gallery owners, and designers have trusted our professional and innovative installation experts to install and carefully remove fine art at all types of surfaces, spaces, and venues, including homes, offices, trade shows, exhibitions, and art galleries across the United States.

Storage Services

For customers seeking a safe and cost-effective solution for the storage of their valuable items, Enclosures International's warehouse in San Francisco is ideal for accumulating and storing multiple pieces, such as traveling exhibitions, furnishings, and art collections, until they are ready for shipment or installation. Whether you want to store priceless antiques or temperature-sensitive artwork, you can rest assured that your investment is safe in our facilities,

Moving Services
