Ive taken statues but they went into a bag that went thru the machine, no I dont do this for my work, simply little by little bringing certain items to my older brother that I dont want that belonged to our parents when they were alive. Most items went into numerous suitcases that I took out there till now, now I got to start to get the paintings out there.
Depending on value, FedEx in a specially prepared wood box would be one alternative. Any art dealer would know how to prep and ship.
