cardiCast 99 – Neville Quick on mammoth logistics
In this episode of cardiCast – the first in a three-part series on “mammoth moves” – Neville Quick, Manager Collection Storage and Logistics at Museums Victoria, talks Mammoth collection storage moves, on the scale of moving an entire museum. Nev is well respected in the museum sector, working in collection storage and logistics for 30 years. There is not much he hasn’t experienced or skill sets he hasn’t acquired in the course of his work, so it was interesting to ask Nev if he ever encountered something he could not move. He also has many words of wisdom about maintaining a positive attitude and calm outlook when dealing with stressful problems encountered with large scale projects. Please note this interview was recorded before the Merri-Bek collection storage flood.

Hi cardies, we’re doing a fundraiser, or ‘the Great newCardigan September Donation Drive’ to use its full name. We haven’t run a fundraiser in almost four years. We’ve drawn down our funds, reduced our costs, and relied on a small number of regular and ad-hoc donors – thank you, we appreciate you a lot! However, we need to keep newCardigan solvent, meaning we need your help to keep going for another year. We’re also revamping our Discord server to foster more discussion and sharing. Alissa has all the details for you. Theme Music by Professor Kliq – ‘Work at night’, sourced from Free Music Archive under a Creative Commons BY-NC-SA licence.
