marble religious statue


Answers

I am looking for a company to move some religious artifacts. I have 2marble statues and 3 marble altars.?

The marble statues are life size 6 ft (1Jesus Sacred Heart and 1 St Andrew. 1 large High Altar and 2 small altars.


Either look online for moving companies which specialize in art or contact a local art museum which companies they can recommend. If I remember correctly the person in an art museum responsible for those things is called a preparator.
Are you moving within a country or to another country? "National movers" won't do you any good in the latter case.

And it's going to be expensive. They or you have to build custom packing crates for your pieces before they even think of shipping.
Generally some moving companies only do whole containers others consolidate containers from different people and I expect that that's the way to go for you. Depending on how/where you go they are going to charge by weight or by volume (e.g. shipping by boat tends to be by volume). You are probably much better off by volume if you can find somebody who does that.

For more comments we'd have to know if you just move across town, across an ocean and which countries are involved.
