Careful collection, packing, and delivery for art, antiques, and fragile auction purchases.

Reliable Collection After the Sale

Shipping Services Direct Ltd provides specialist auction collection and transport for buyers who need reliable onward delivery after a sale.

We collect regularly from the auction partners listed here, coordinating direct pickup, careful packing, and secure delivery for fine art, antiques, ceramics, glassware, and other fragile purchases across the region.

As an additional service to our standard postal and courier options, we offer a regular dedicated delivery route to London and the surrounding counties for delicate or bulky items. This bespoke service helps reduce holding times at the auction room and ensures your items are handled with expert care from door to door.

How Auction Shipping Works

  • Collection Coordination: We arrange collection dates directly with the auction house administration team, picking up weekly or on scheduled collection days to prevent storage fees.
  • Professional Packing: Every item is carefully inspected and prepared using specialist materials tailored for delicate goods, including framed artwork, porcelain, furniture, and high-value collectibles.
  • Shipping: We coordinate timely shipping to help reduce storage and holding time at the auction house.
  • Flexible Delivery Options: Choose between tracked postal shipping for smaller lots or our direct road transit service for larger, fragile, or multi-item purchases.
