    The U.S. Navy’s collection of more than 300,000 artifacts, some dating back to the founding of the republic, are being moved to the Naval History and Heritage Command’s Collection Management Facility (CMF). The CMF is a 300,000 square foot warehouse with facilities for administration, conservation and curation of historic artifacts.

The crate, labeled 'CAX 3824', contains what appears to be a bronze or brass bell secured inside. An older man in a white polo shirt is directing the movement while a younger man operates the pallet jack.

    This infographic details the Naval History and Heritage Command's (NHHC) Artifact Consolidation project, which began on September 2, 2014, moving artifact collections from multiple warehouses into a single facility at Defense Supply Center in Richmond, Virginia. The infographic highlights key statistics about the new warehouse, the mission of the Curator Branch, and the benefits of the new consolidated space. Approximately 75% of the collection has already been consolidated to Richmond.
    The image shows a large collection of bells of varying sizes and materials wrapped individually in clear plastic protective packaging. The bells appear to be stored or staged for transport, resting on wooden pallets or boards. Some bells show signs of age or patina, while others appear to be polished metal.
