PACKING AND DESPATCH OF ITEMS
Items requiring an Export Licence
A licence from the Export Licensing Unit may be required before manuscripts, miniatures and printed books with significant manuscript additions may be exported from the United Kingdom. Bloomsbury Auctions are more than happy to arrange this, free of charge. Depending on the import status of the item, these generally take between 5 - 28 working days to obtain. For items that require such licences, we are also happy to arrange in-house shipping.
For export licences and in-house shipping, please contact the department directly:

All other items
For all other items, we do not offer a packing service ourselves, but we give below details of companies who would be happy to give you a quote for the despatch of your items. Please note that lots will not be released until they are paid for in full, and the cost of shipping / despatch is payable direct to the company concerned. Please note that we will need your prior authorisation before we release goods to any packer / shipper.
We regret that we are not able to pack your lots for your own shipper or carrier to collect, so if you intend to arrange your own shipping, please can you make sure that the firm you employ understands that they will also need to pack. Please note collections are possible from Monday – Friday (9.30am – 5pm) but please call in advance: tel: + 44 (0) 20 7839 8880. Collections are not possible at weekends.
