About White Glove Delivery

Some things cannot be replaced, and cannot be dropped. When the shipment is a piece of fine art, a precision instrument, or a one-of-a-kind prototype, ordinary freight handling is a risk you should never take.

Why irreplaceable cargo travels white-glove with FlashGL #

FlashGL's white-glove service moves the irreplaceable with a dedicated two-person team, bespoke crating, and shock monitoring that records every impact above threshold. We do not hand your item to a conveyor or a cargo hold; we carry it through every checkpoint and place it exactly where it belongs, uncrating and positioning on site. Fine-art and valuables insurance covers the journey from collection to final placement.

Every white-glove move is planned around the object, not the route: climate control where needed, padded handling at every transfer, and a single accountable crew from pickup to positioning. You receive condition reports and shock logs so the chain of care is documented end to end.

When to specify white-glove delivery #

Choose white-glove for gallery and auction pieces, laboratory and medical instruments, luxury goods, and prototypes that exist in exactly one copy. We have delivered white-glove cargo across more than eighty countries and two hundred airports.

White-glove is not a premium add-on — for the irreplaceable, it is the only responsible method. A single shock above threshold, a missed climate window, or a careless handoff can destroy value that cannot be remade, which is why we treat condition documentation as part of the service, not an afterthought.

From auction houses moving multimillion-dollar canvases to labs shipping one-of-a-kind instruments, clients choose white-glove because the cost of being wrong is total — and our process is built so that never happens.

How It Works

Simple 4-step process to get your urgent shipment moving

1

Describe Your Item & Requirements

Tell us what you're shipping, its value, fragility, and placement needs; we design the plan.

2

Custom Crating & Team Assignment

We build custom crating, assign a dedicated two-person team, and outfit the vehicle.

3

Hand-Carried Transit with Active Monitoring

Your team carries the shipment through every checkpoint — no conveyors, no cargo holds.

4

On-Site Delivery & Positioning

The team delivers to exact placement, uncrates, and provides positioning assistance with photographic documentation.

Why Choose FlashGL for White Glove Delivery?

Industry-leading response times, global coverage, and end-to-end logistics expertise you can rely on.

Two-Person Team, Zero Handoffs

One dedicated two-person courier team carries your shipment from pickup to placement. No handoffs to local agents, no transfers between vehicles, no "next driver will finish the delivery." The team that picks it up is the team that delivers it — because the risk of damage is highest at handoff points.

Custom Crating, Not Off-the-Shelf

Every item gets purpose-built crating designed for its specific dimensions, weight distribution, and fragility profile. Internal shock indicators record every impact above threshold during transit. If your item arrives with a triggered indicator, you know exactly where and when it occurred — and it almost never does.

Impact Monitoring, Not Damage Discovery

Standard logistics discovers damage at delivery. White Glove Delivery monitors impacts in transit — every shock above threshold is recorded, timestamped, and reported in real time. You know the condition of your shipment before it arrives, not after you open the crate and find out.

Delivery to Placement, Not Loading Dock

Standard delivery ends at the receiving dock. White Glove Delivery ends when your item is positioned at the exact location, in the exact orientation, with all packing materials removed and condition documented photographically. For a painting, that means hung on the wall. For an instrument, that means mounted on the bench.

Climate Control for Sensitive Materials

Artwork, musical instruments, and precision electronics are sensitive to humidity and temperature variation that would not affect standard cargo. Our climate-controlled vehicles maintain specified conditions from pickup to delivery — not just "air conditioned," but maintained within the range your item requires.

Anti-Static and ESD-Safe Handling

Semiconductor equipment, prototype electronics, and precision optics require electrostatic discharge protection that standard courier services do not provide. Our handling protocols include anti-static packaging, grounded work surfaces, and ESD-safe procedures from crating through uncrating.
