Transportation

You are shipping a painting to Berlin: should you choose the plane or the truck?

You are lending a Dubuffet sculpture to Sao Paulo: will you choose the plane or the boat?

Between Paris and Sydney, should I change planes in Frankfurt or Singapore?

Whether by truck, by plane, by boat, or even by train for a small piece of work in accompanied luggage, each mode of transport has its advantages and sometimes its disadvantages.

The best choice will have taken into account:

• the nature of the work and its bulk once packed;
• the means of transportation between the points of origin and destination;
• possible routes ;
• the time we have to carry out the operation;
• the presence or not of a conveyor.

Air transport is becoming more and more complex. Security constraints are becoming more and more stringent. Airports are congested. Companies do not hesitate to modify their flights or change aircraft at the last minute. Fares are so disparate that, for the same flight and the same seat, you can find tickets ranging from one to six times.

How to ensure that a given shipment is correctly "palletized" and loaded on the planned flight with its conveyor? How can we help the courier to fulfill his mission in the most favorable conditions? Can we be sure that a piece of work in accompanied baggage will be accepted on board?

Supervising all these operations and guiding the courier is a real assistance service to which LP ART takes the greatest care. Although difficult to measure, it requires perfect mastery of air transport and the mobilization of significant resources on site, at Roissy or Orly. In concrete terms, this means men and vehicles, and a lot of time spent in the passenger, freight and traffic areas...
