Sculpture Delivery & Installation

We Manage the Logistics End to End

Large-format and outdoor sculpture brings real logistics with it: safe transport, siting, footings and base preparation, and rigging for anything beyond what two people can lift into place. We manage that process end to end, from a single garden piece through to landmark-scale public commissions like the Kirra Sea Eagle.

For private and commercial sites, delivery, siting advice and installation are handled as part of the purchase. For councils, developers and larger commercial sites, this extends to engineering sign-off, footings and structural mounting appropriate to the site and the work.

We coordinate directly with builders, landscapers and project managers on site where a sculpture is part of a larger build or landscaping programme.

Delivering Across Australia

ARTpark delivers to every mainland capital and to regional addresses nationwide: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Hobart and Darwin, along with regional New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia and Tasmania.

Interstate buyers make up a steady share of our private sales. The same works, the same sculptors and the same installation support are available whether a piece is going to a garden in Woollahra or a property outside Perth. See our local pages for Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney.

Site access is worth checking early

The most common hold-up on a large delivery is access, and it’s easily checked before you commit. Confirm the width of the side access or gate, whether a truck and crane can get close enough to the placement point, any overhead power lines on the approach, and whether the ground will carry the weight of the work and the machinery. Send us a photo of the approach and the intended position, and we’ll tell you what’s required before you buy, not after.

Footings and installation

Smaller works sit on a paver, a plinth or directly on the ground. Anything above about 1.5 metres generally needs a concrete footing, and larger and public works need an engineered footing with structural mounting appropriate to the site.

What it costs and how long it takes

Freight and installation are quoted per work and per destination, because a 40 kg bronze going to Brisbane and a 3-metre corten piece going to regional Western Australia are entirely different jobs. Send us the work you’re considering and the delivery address, and we’ll provide a freight estimate, an indicative timeline and any site requirements before you commit.
