Good packing is one of the biggest factors in how smoothly moving day goes. A few simple habits make a big difference.
Start With What You Use Least
Pack out-of-season items, spare linens and rarely-used kitchenware first, leaving daily essentials until last.
Use The Right Box For The Job
Heavy items like books belong in smaller, sturdy boxes; lighter items like bedding can go in larger ones. This keeps boxes manageable to lift.
Wrap Fragile Items Individually
Glassware, crockery and ornaments should be wrapped individually and packed snugly so they can't shift in transit.
Label Clearly
Mark each box with its destination room and a general description of contents. It saves time for everyone on moving day.
Pack An Essentials Box
Keep chargers, medication, toiletries and a change of clothes together in a box you keep with you, separate from the removals van.
