Packing for Your Move - Packing techniques from the Experts
Effective packing techniques can help you to keep move your possessions safely, and to set up your new home without too many hassles! The packing methods used by professional moving and packing companies, will help you to save time and money!

It pays to make a moving packing list of all things you need to do, and delegate work to family members. Begin packing as soon you find out that you will have to relocate, and start by packing the things you will not need before you move.

If you start packing several weeks before your move, you can easily pack a few boxes every day.

Buy professional quality packing supplies like packing cartons, bubble wrap, packing tape, and packing peanuts, which will keep your possessions safe during the relocation.

Used packing boxes may be much cheaper, but they may be dirty, and may not be able to protect your things during the move.

Pack the things in one room at a time. Stick a numbered label on each packing carton, which mentions the room where it is to be placed, and lists its contents. Fill each carton to the top and keep the heavier items at the bottom of each box. Don’t stuff boxes beyond their capacity, or leave them half empty.

Pack very heavy items in small cartons so they will be easy to lift. Use plenty of padding to protect fragile items, and fix stickers on the cartons to advise the packers to handle breakable items with care. You can find stickers for moving boxes at your stationery store, or print them out on your computer.

Collect all important documents like wills, deeds, bonds, and certificates of deposit, and carry them with you when you move. Pack items of value, like jewelry, family heirlooms and hobby collections separately, and carry them with you when you relocate.
