packing tips
Packing can be a time-consuming chore that takes a combination of skill and the right materials to prepare your household articles for moving.
We suggest that you have our packing professionals pack and move your apartment or home for you. We’re trained in proper procedures, have the right moving materials for packing and can complete the job in a quarter of the time. When you use our moving packing services, your house stays as functional as it is today until the day before your move.
Even if you decide to do most of your own packing for your move, we recommend that you have us pack and prepare:
- Glass tops, mirrors and pictures
- Mattresses and box springs
- Extremely fragile items
We can also arrange crating for:
- Marble tops
- Large glass tops
- Pool table slate
- Valuable paintings and artwork
If you pack your apartment or if we do the job, these things should not be packed into boxes planned for the move:
- Cash
- Securities
- Jewelry
- Firearms (consult local laws) or ammunition
- Personal papers like birth certificates, deeds, and policies
- Coin or stamp collections
- Irreplaceable family photos
Never pack any flammables, matches, lighters, fireworks or explosives, fuels, solvents or aerosol cans. Bleach or other caustic liquids are also a risk because if they leak they will cause damage to other items and are best left behind for safety.
If you decide to do your own packing for your move, you can benefit from knowing these house and apartment packing tips that help us pack safely and stay organized.
