MAKE THE PACKING PART EASIER- PREPARE YOURSELF ON TIME

Since this is quite a complex process, the key to completing this task successfully is good preparation. This is certainly something that will make packing much easier. First of all, think about what packing supplies you are going to need. Make a list and also think about the quantity. In order to do this properly, go around your home and check what items you need to pack. Feel free to get rid of all of the items you do not want to bring to your new home because, by doing this, you will need fewer boxes and less packing material. Once you start packing your belongings, you will get to do it with no pauses or delays. If it happens that you need some pieces of advice, you can always count on our movers.

YOU ARE GOING TO BENEFIT FROM THESE USEFUL PACKING TIPS

• Try to start packing 3 to 4 weeks before your move or as soon as possible.
• Begin packing the things you use least, such as books, seasonal clothing or sports equipment, and knick-knacks.
• When packing for a summer move, bag items that may soften in the heat, such as candles, soaps, etc.
• If you have time use the opportunity to organize and get rid of outdated items you do not use.
• Use strong cardboard boxes—small boxes for heavier items, large boxes for lighter items. Avoid over-packing.
• Buy more packing tape than you think you will need, you will most likely end up using it.
• Lay your books flat in their box, alternating bindings so they stack evenly.
• To stay neat, concentrate on packing one room at a time, stacking finished boxes in a corner against the wall.
• Use your computer to print out labels indicating each box’s source room, and attach them to each completed box. Also, you can use a black marker to label the box (this also saves valuable unpacking time).
• Pack alarm clocks, medication, valuables, and urgent items in a separate, clearly marked box or bag. Make copies of important documents such as wills, contracts, and passports.
• Wrap nuts and bolts in clearly labeled plastic bags.
• Empty dressers completely (furniture tends to break more easily if not emptied first).
• One less-known item: most movers will not reassemble baby cribs, for important safety reasons. So, make sure to have a knowledgeable person ready to do so.
• Keep a complete inventory list of everything to be moved. Jot down serial numbers on all electronic equipment.
• Flammables like aerosol cans, paints, or gasoline should be carefully disposed of beforehand.
• Transport perishables like frozen foods, products, or plants on your own.
• Soaps, sprays, polishes, and medicine should not be placed in the same box as food. Heavy items should not be packed with dishware.

HOW TO PACK YOUR ITEMS WITHOUT DAMAGING THEM?

Determine which boxes you are going to need:

Small Box:

• Ideal for books, magazines, files, and small picture frames

Medium Box:

• Ideal for shoes, clothing, linens, and small kitchen appliances

Large Box:

• Ideal for blankets, pillows, towels, toys, and pots/pans

Dish Pack Box:

• Ideal for plates, stemware, vases, and serving trays

Prepare to pack:

Small Box:

• Start by taping the bottom of the box closed
• Lay books flat in their container
• Alternate the spine and open side of the book (this helps evenly distribute the weight of the box)
• Place a piece of paper between books to prevent them from sticking together.

Medium and Large Box:

• Start by taping the bottom of the box closed
• Place your folded clothing in the box
• Individually wrap shoes and other items being placed in the box to avoid scratches

Dish Pack Box:

• Start by taping the bottom of the box closed
• Create a protective cushion base at the bottom of the box with packing paper
• Wrap each piece of china with packing paper
• Wrap up to three individually wrapped pieces of china together
• Place china in the box standing upright (do not lay flat)
• Once the base is full, create another cushion layer over the china
• Start a new row with lighter china, wrapping them the same way
• Continue this until the box is full
• All bottles should be taped closed, then wrapped with packing paper

Stemware should be wrapped as follows:

• Wrap each piece with packing paper
• Insert packing paper into the goblet and then wrap it around the stem
• Cushion the piece of stemware with a final, thick wrapping of paper
• Place item in the box

Get organized:

• Label boxes as you pack
• Name, the room it belongs in, contents, and handling (fragile, heavy, this side up, etc)
• Create your own inventory list of important items inside each box. This will help keep track of your boxes in the event that one is misplaced or lost.
• Use your personal inventory list as a reference guide when unpacking
