artisanal logistics
Teal Cartage is the world's first courier network engineered for the single, irreplaceable object — the one you would never trust to a bulk carrier's conveyor belt.
A living dossier for your item — condition photos, provenance notes, handling rituals — that travels with every hand that touches it, from doorstep to doorstep.
No anonymous drivers. Each leg is assigned to a vetted specialist who signs for your object and stays reachable until it arrives.
Every transfer is timestamped, geo-pinned, and photographed. You watch your heirloom advance across the map, checkpoint by checkpoint.
Custom-cut foam, moisture control, and shock telemetry for fragile ceramics, vintage synths, and framed originals — measured to the millimeter.
We plan around heat, humidity, and altitude, not just distance, so a lacquered guitar never sees a hot loading dock.
A named concierge owns your shipment end to end. No queue, no ticket number — just the person who knows exactly where your thing is.
“I sold a 1962 archtop to a collector three countries away. Teal Cartage crated it, tracked the humidity in transit, and sent me a photo of it resting in his studio. I have never exhaled like that.”
“Galleries treat a single canvas like freight. Teal Cartage treated it like the only object in the world. The Manifest of One is now a condition report my insurer actually trusts.”
“My grandmother's porcelain crossed the Atlantic with a named courier and zero drama. Watching each checkpoint light up on the map felt less like shipping and more like an escort.”
Simple plans that scale with you.
For the one-off treasure that simply cannot go in a bin.
For makers and sellers who ship precious pieces every week.
For studios and collections moving irreplaceable inventory at pace.
