GENERAL COMMENTS
Large prints are sent carefully rolled in tissue paper and bubble wrap before being slotted in a wide sturdy tube. Framers are quite happy to work with rolled items, but be careful as fine art prints are on papers that need extra special care when handling. Try to hold corner to corner to avoid kinking.
I wouldn't recommend leaving rolled artwork in the tube for weeks after purchase, this makes it harder to un-roll.
Smaller prints wrapped with cellophane and backed onto card. They are sent carefully packaged between four layers of sturdy corrugated cardboard.

All delivery times are approximate.

FAQ's
FRAMES
The frames in my pictures are ‘box frames’. The method is to keep the print away from the glass so it doesn't touch it, a conservation technique. Basically it does the same as mount/matt board, by keeping the paper away from being right up against the glass.

The frame itself has a fillet of wood (usually painted) inserted around the edge of the frame between the glass and the back of the frame, and it creates a 'box'. I use a painted fillet of wood the same colour as the mount board behind the print, see the photographs. (Sometimes I have asked the framer to use foamboard if I want a smaller depth.)

The print is attached to mount board, using conservation tape to stop yellowing over time.

I would get some quotes from a couple of framers as the price can vary quite substantially.
I leave a boarder around the print of 30mm, about an inch, but this is personal choice.

The moulding I use is solid ash (nice and light in colour and doesn't have huge variations in knots etc) the size is 15mm x 30mm. 30mm is the depth of the wood. White/grey painted wood also looks good.

SHOP BOUGHT FRAMES
Try Ikea or habitat online for the biggest selection of sizes. I would buy bigger to allow for some space around the paper.
