TESTIMONIALS

Hi Ross,

Just wanted to say a big thank you for our beautiful artwork and the professionalism and patience of the installers.

It was a fun day organising the placement and the team are very grateful and the office looks fantastic!

Cheers

Hi George,

Thanks to you and your NZ colleague for the overtime work at the airport. It’s really good to know the consignment is under your supervision and in safe hands.

Much appreciated

Dear Kingsley,

I am writing to thank you for the excellent service received from your colleague, George Boubeta.

George has been great to deal with, patient, courteous and diligent!

He has dealt with difficulty with bureaucracy & logistics during a pandemic to get my clients artworks to her in LA. We started this shipment in November 2019 and then in March, at the start of the Pandemic, every turn seemed to work against getting my client her artworks delivered. I was grateful that the artworks arrived safely at her home this week.

Great service deserves to be recognised, thank you for all that George and IAS has done for me & my client in LA.

Best wishes
Sincerely
Appreciative client of IAS

Hi Paul,

Firstly an enormous thank you to the team today – they were fantastic, incredibly patient and everything ran smoothly!

Two of the pictures the team moved today are incredibly large and required a bit of manoeuvring which they did carefully and successfully.

Thank you for everything.

Hi Jason,

The collection went extremely smoothly this morning. Russell the driver was top notch and the load plan made things a lot easier. Couldn’t have gone better.

Hello Jason,

The freight arrived yesterday and I wanted to say a huge thank you.  It was all so carefully and beautifully packed, and just as carefully brought inside by Malcolm and Max.  We have now unpacked it and of course it is all intact.

Please do pass on my thanks, and congratulations on a job so well done to everyone involved.

With best wishes,
Christine

Hi Paul,

Thanks for organising the early uplift! Went really well. Your drivers are all such great people to work with – just thought I’d pass on – as most people probably don’t get around to letting you know!

Thanks again

Hi Paul and Ian,

Hi Malcolm and Ben,

We received the trolleys yesterday and I’m thrilled with the result! They will make such a difference to the collections team and the safety of the artworks as we move them around. Thank you very much for your efforts on these.

Kind regards,

Hi Donna,

The move of the painting went beautifully, thanks; accolades all ’round. I’ll be back in touch when next it moves – that is, when it comes home!

Thanks

Greatly appreciate your and your teams accommodation of our unexpected need for transport of art works to our Alexandria office.

Hi Andrew,

I just want to say thank you again for being so helpful yesterday. We had such an urgent delivery and you really helped by moving some things around to accommodate us.

Hi Kelly,

Just wanted to let you know that the delivery of the exhibition went extremely well. Max the driver was excellent. Very professional, completely on top of how best to unload and watchful of our safety. Plus he’s just a lovely guy! He deserves a big thumbs up.

Hello Thomas,

Thanks for arranging both the pick-up and delivery of my artwork during our recent move from Edgecliff to Pyrmont. It would be very remiss of me not to comment on the excellent service that your Company offered. Both collection and delivery was smooth, uncomplicated and extremely professional.

I could not have asked for a more satisfactory outcome.

Kind regards
Ken

Thanks Andrew

I wanted to take a moment to say how grateful I am for the assistance you have given me this year – Thank you. I have also appreciated your professionalism and timely responses to all of my emails. It has certainly made my job a lot easier knowing that you are across our transport and storage requirements.

Kind regards
Natasha

Hello,

I would like to convey our sincere thanks to Max and Steve for their delightful and professional service regarding the pick up, packaging and transport of an old significant map which was to be delivered interstate.

We were kept in contact with your ETA prior to arrival and the service was impeccable.

Greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Claire

Hi Kingsley,
Hope you are well.

It’s a quick note of thanks and recognition. (I rarely write notes like this)

Have a great day.

Thanks
Cheers

Good morning George,

The canvas looks very happy in its new crate. You all do an amazing job.

I have been very slow in saying thank you for all of your support when we were in Sydney – it was wonderful to meet you!

Warm regards
Karen Dayman

Hi Doug,

It has been an absolute breeze working with you and your team at IAS and I very much appreciate how easy you have made this whole process.

Hi Maria,

Thank you again for arranging the collection of the works so quickly, I really appreciate it.

Dear TED,

Thank you so so much for doing such a wonderful job packing such challenging work. I couldn’t have done it without your team, those crates were amazing !!! It felt so indulgent and spoilt having my work packed but it really paid off.

Thank you, thank you!
All the best, Lynda

Hi Andy,

I just wanted to thank you and your team for the safe arrival of the artworks to John Curtin Gallery from their various lenders. It all went really smoothly, and the artworks are now safely stacked in our gallery space, waiting to be installed.

Hello Doug,

Thank you so much for your great work yesterday, everything went like clockwork! And yes, the painting does look fantastic in the Speaker’s Corridor.

Kind regards
Isla

Hi All,

On Saturday afternoon at 5.04pm I took a call from a private client in Perth who had just had a fire and needed the emergency evacuation of fifteen valuable artworks in order to avoid smoke damage.

Hi Paul and Craig,

I just wanted to say how fabulous Darren and Johannes were today. It was a much bigger job than we realised, and they handled all the various aspects very professionally.

Hi George,

All went well this morning and the art works were returned safely.

We are in the 37th year of our business and in that time we have rarely dealt with a company as professional as IAS.

Good Afternoon Doug,

After 25 years in Oil & Gas and particularly in the last decade, whenever I have anything to do with road freight and logistics there is a particular image that I expect to see.

Thank you IAS, for all your hard work in relocating the heavy artwork from storage, via our loading dock, through the terminal to our 2^nd floor offices, where they were all finally installed.  Great job guys.

Hi Tom,

Thank you for organising the build of the crates. They are great. Please pass on my thanks to Troy who worked hard on site for the two days to do an amazing fit out. We are very pleased.

Thanks again
Sam

Dear Ross and Graham,

I am writing to sincerely thank you both for the tremendous effort and support you gave to our team last week in providing quotes for the freight and crating of our contemporary sculpture exhibition. Your readiness to assist is always appreciated.

Hi Doug,

Just wanted to pass on to you what an amazing team you have working for you at IAS Fine Arts Logistics, Steve and Robert were amazing with their professionalism and care of the art work.

Kind regards
Pam

Dear Ingrid

Thank you for looking after our paintings so well whilst they were in storage. They were all returned in excellent condition.

Kind regards
Trudy

Dear Doug,

Thank you very much for your excellent service. The absolute professionalism was impressive, my art work arrived safely at Art Collective. Thank you also to Rob who was helpful at all times.

Great!

Best regards
Susan Roux

Thank you George.

I’ve received rave reviews about the quality of your packing. The London crowd were very impressed indeed.

The first of our state of the art Exhibition Vehicles is currently enroute from Darwin. The vehicles are as good as it gets in long-haul exhibition transport anywhere in the world.

Hi Ben,

Thank you – we were very impressed with the crates and the quality of Niko and Malcolm’s work. They were a pleasure to work with, very careful, efficient and professional.

Warm regards
Fiona
