Packing Tips

• Pack one room at a time, marking each box with a description of its contents and destination (e.g., kids bedroom, study, bathroom). Be as specific as you can as it will make unpacking that much easier.
• Pack those items you will not need right away first.  Mark on the box these items are low priority for unpacking.
• Liquids should not be packed. If they break, damage could occur to not only those items in the box but boxes surrounding the box.
• Keep the total weight of your boxes reasonable. If possible, put heavy items in small boxes to make them easier to carry.
• Don’t apply tape directly to polished or painted wood finishes. Removing the tape could ruin the surface.
• Double-box fragile items and add plenty of cushioning. Use common sense when packing fragile items.
