Packing tips

Below you can find some tips to help you achieve a successful home move:

LABEL IT

Use coloured, removable stickers on your boxes to distinguish bedrom items from bathrom items, etc. Different colour codes can be very helpful. Quick look and you will know what is in the box.
You can also stick similar stickers on the door of room that the box have to be delivered to. It may help removal crew to leave items in the correct room and you will save time as well.

FILL IT

If possible don't fill boxes with heavy items. Heavy boxes can be difficult to move and they may also break during transport. To avoid that use enough tape around the boxes. Any empty space should be filled with some delicate soft or paper.

WRAP IT

Make sure you have a lot of wrapping paper. Anything wrapped in newspapers can be soiled from the ink and will require cleaning after unpacking. The best solution is to use unprinted paper which you can be supplied by your removal company. For cups, bowls etc use plastic bubble wrap.

CRATES AND BOXES

You may need to hire crates or boxes to pack your belongings.

PLAN AND ORGANISE

Good idea is to choose spare room/place in your home where you can start packing. Do it in you garage, dining room or any other place where you will find a loot of free space.
To save you from sudden large workload near removal day, start packing few days before removal date.
Do not pack important documents with your general household belongings. You should always pack them separately.
