Enter Packing fragile items can be one of the most stressful parts of moving, but with the right materials and a little extra care, you can help ensure everything arrives at your new home safely.
Start by gathering quality packing supplies. Wrapping paper is an excellent choice for protecting dishes, glassware, picture frames, and other delicate items. Wrap each item individually and fill any empty spaces inside the bin to prevent movement during transport. Avoid using newspaper, as the ink can transfer onto your belongings.
When packing dishes, place them upright rather than stacking them flat. Glasses and mugs should be wrapped separately, while heavier items should always go on the bottom with lighter, more delicate pieces packed on top. Never overfill a bin, and make sure the lid closes securely without forcing it shut.
Reusable moving bins provide added protection because they’re made from durable plastic that won’t collapse or weaken like cardboard if exposed to moisture. Their sturdy design also allows them to stack securely, helping reduce shifting during your move.
