Start Early and Stay Organized
Begin packing at least 7–10 days before the moving date. Start with items you rarely use and work your way to daily essentials. Label each box clearly with its contents and the room it belongs to. This helps during unpacking and avoids confusion at your new place.
Use the Right Box for the Right Item
Heavy items like books should go in small boxes, while light, bulky items like bedding can go in large boxes. Overloading big boxes with heavy things can lead to breakage or injury.
Secure Sealing and Labeling
We use high-quality tapes, zip ties, and tamper-proof seals to ensure that every box is securely packed. Proper labeling is also done on all cartons to make unpacking systematic and hassle-free at your destination.
Protect Fragile Items
Wrap fragile items like glassware, crockery, and electronics in bubble wrap or soft cloth. Use plenty of cushioning at the bottom and sides of the box. Mark these boxes as “FRAGILE” to ensure careful handling.
Keep Essentials Handy
Pack a "first-day essentials" box with toiletries, clothes, chargers, and important documents. This saves you from digging through boxes right after moving.
Don’t Leave Empty Spaces
Fill any gaps in boxes with newspaper, towels, or foam to prevent items from shifting. Tightly packed boxes are safer and easier to stack in the moving truck.
