Packing Tips for a Smooth Move

Millions of Americans will be packing up their belongings and moving into new homes this year. Most of these families are taking with them household items that are very valuable, fragile, and breakable. With such valuable items at stake, proper packing techniques become an essential part of their move. If you are one of these families, and are planning on packing your household items yourself, here are some proper packing techniques that will ensure your move is smooth one.

  • Plan on giving yourself at least six weeks to pack and get ready for your move. The more time you allow yourself, the easier packing will be.
  • Before you start packing your items, determine which items you want to keep, throw away, or sell. Moving is an excellent time to get rid of items that you no longer want or need to keep. Not only will this save you time and money, but you’ll have fewer items to pack.
  • Don't start packing just yet- plan how you will pack, and which items you will pack together.  Pack items that you don't use often first.  Also, try to pack items that are the same size and weight together.  Don't pack so many items into one carton that its not easily lifted.   
  • Make sure to use proper packing material.  We suggest professional packing tape, which is wide, clear or brown, and very durable.  Masking tape is not recommended because its not very strong, and cannot support the weight of a fully packed carton.
  • Label the contents on the outside of all boxes, along with the room they belong to in your new home.  If the items are fragile, make sure to write that on the box, along with arrows indicating the upright position.
    Make sure that essential items, such as toiletries, utensils, and clothes are marked in boxes that read "open first" on the outside.  Pack these boxes in the moving truck last, as they will be the items you want to open first when you arrive at your new home.
