I did not use these here because most people do not have these materials readily available. Most galleries are happy to wrap a work in bubble wrap or other appropriate material if they know you are coming. The foam core and insulation material will protect sensitive finishes like gold leaf frames.

If you are planning on reusing a frame regularly, it is best to ask your framer not to put the backing material on that frame. Foamcore on top and fluted cardboard below are the materials most used to protect the back of a painting on canvas. Is it better to use mirror hangers (D rings) or wire to hang a work?

As with my post on transporting an artwork in your car , I will make suggestions on how to temporarily store artwork by safely stacking two-dimensional works against a wall using protective materials that would be found in your home or could be picked up at a local U-LINE, Lowes, or Home Depot.

We used 2 5/8 inch galvanized chain link fence posts for the vertical supports and a smaller diameter 1 5/8 inch of the same material to support the shelves. The drawers hold plastic tubs for storage. Full depth plinth drawers roll in and out on recessed wheels for long term storage. Plastic bins keep storage items moisture and bug free.

You will not know if you have found a frame shop that uses archival materials unless you ask the right questions. One of the best ways to find a good framer is to contact several art galleries around your area that do not have framing departments and ask them who the best conservation framers are in the area.
