Fine art transportation →Art movers and installers in Queens and Long Island City
Aiston is based in Long Island City. From here the team moves, installs and releases artwork for collectors, galleries, advisors, designers, estates and artists across Queens.
Local to the facility
Moves that start or end at home base.
Many Queens projects connect directly to Aiston's own facility: works collected for storage, released for delivery or installation, or brought in for a private viewing. Intake, storage, viewing and release stay connected, so the next movement is planned before the work leaves.
Founded in New York in 2002, Aiston handles projects from a single framed work to gallery transfers, estate moves and full collection layouts, and keeps object records connected from collection to placement.
