DIY Your Packing
If you’re moving or simply want to pack some items away for storage, it’s important to use the correct packing supplies and techniques. Improperly boxing your possessions can lead to damage, such as dents, scratches, and even water damage. By doing your own packing, you can ensure that your belongings are properly protected. Plus, it can be a fun thing to do.
You can save money by using recycled boxes or boxes you have on hand. Boxes are also often free from many online retailers or local grocery stores. You can customize those boxes so that they can fit your needs. The most important thing is to ensure that the boxes are sturdy and that the contents won’t move around inside them.
Organization Is Key
When it comes to packing, organizing is better. If not, you’ll waste a lot of time digging through boxes, lifting heavy items, and searching for the items you need. It may be helpful to pack in a room by room method to label which rooms each box is coming from.
A good rule of thumb with packing is to start from the top and work your way down. That way, you won’t have to move so many items when the time to unpack comes. You may also want to start with larger and heavier objects and work up to your smaller and lighter ones.
Essential Moving Tips For Packing
- Wrap breakables in cloth or bubble wrap
- Fill boxes with crumpled newspaper to prevent objects from scraping against one another
- Label each box with a marker if possible
- Use appropriate packing materials and tools (such as scissors, tape, and more)
- Stack boxes on top of one another only if they are sturdy
