Abstract
Moving museum collections never seems to happen in the same way twice. The differences in specimen types, scale, distance, timescale, funding, staff resource, governance and scope seem to render lessons learned from previous moves almost pointless. Surely there must be a finite number of things that can go wrong, things to bear in mind and things never to do again? This report details our experiences in the hope that one day someone will conduct a specimen move in which all goes to plan.
