Our Tips on Packing Fragile Items

• Use Bubble Wrap: Protect each fragile item with bubble wrap to cushion against any impacts. Secure the bubble wrap with tape to keep it in place.
• Layering and Cushioning: Line the bottom of the box with crumpled packing paper or foam peanuts. Place fragile items inside and fill any gaps with additional paper or peanuts to prevent movement.
• Label Boxes as "Fragile": Clearly mark all boxes containing fragile items with "Fragile" on all sides. This ensures our movers handle these boxes with extra care.
• Separate Delicate Items: Pack delicate items, such as glassware and china, separately from heavier items to avoid accidental damage during transit.
• Use Dividers: Utilize dividers for items like glassware to keep each piece separated and reduce the risk of breakage.
• Double Box for Extra Protection: For highly fragile or valuable items, consider double boxing. Place the item in a smaller box with ample cushioning, then place that box inside a larger box with additional padding.

Our Tips on Packing Heavy Items

• Pack Heavy Items in Smaller Boxes: To prevent boxes from becoming too heavy to lift safely, pack heavy items such as books, tools, and small appliances in smaller boxes.
• Distribute Weight Evenly: Ensure balanced boxes by distributing weight evenly. Place heavier items at the bottom and lighter items on top.
• Reinforce Box Bottoms: Use strong packing tape to reinforce the bottoms of boxes holding heavy items. This adds extra strength and prevents the box from breaking under the weight.
• Use Proper Lifting Techniques: Lift with your legs, not your back, to avoid injury. Keep the box close to your body and do not twist while lifting.
• Label Boxes with Contents and Weight: Clearly label each box with its contents and an approximate weight. This helps our movers know what to expect and ensures proper handling.
• Utilize Moving Equipment: Use dollies, hand trucks, and moving straps to assist with lifting and transporting heavy boxes. This reduces the risk of injury and makes the process more efficient.
