FAQs

Why should I buy from Hanging Mobile Gallery?
You've got style. (We have lots of styles to chose from.)
You want options. (Our selection is huge.)
You like a bargain. (Our prices are fair—and we don't charge sales tax!)
You want to support the little guys. (Yes, we're an online ma and pop.)

How should I hang my mobile?
Just buy a screw eye bolt from our hanging tools section and screw it into your ceiling. Tie your mobile to the screw, and enjoy your new masterpiece!

How can I get my mobile to move more?
Mobile movement is all about airflow. Your mobile will move the most if it's located within the flow of a heat vent, air-conditioning duct, open window, or fan. You don't want too much of a good thing, though: a strong gust can tangle or damage your mobile!

Do you ship internationally?
Absolutely. We normally ship via USPS Priority International. Check our shipping page for more details.

I live in the Portland area. Do you have a storefront? Can I pick up my mobile?
We don't have a storefront, but we do have a warehouse near in northwest Portland, near the Pearl District. If you'd like to pick up your mobile (and save on shipping costs!), feel free to contact us at info@hangingmobilegallery.com or 503.922.3294.

Do you accept purchase orders?
Yes. Give us a call at 877.278.3199 or e-mail your P.O. to info@hangingmobilegallery.com
