Packing & Moving Supplies

Move Effortlessly with Our Packing Tips

Proper packing is essential to ensure the safety and integrity of your belongings during a move.

Here are some packing tips to help you pack efficiently and effectively:

  1. Start Early: Begin packing well in advance of your moving day. This allows you to pack gradually and avoid last-minute stress.

  2. Create a Packing Plan: Make a room-by-room plan and tackle one area at a time. Label each box with the contents and the room it belongs to for easy unpacking.

  3. Use the Right Supplies: Invest in sturdy moving boxes, packing tape, bubble wrap, packing peanuts, and furniture blankets. These supplies will provide protection and cushioning for your items.

  4. Pack Heavy Items at the Bottom: Place heavier items at the bottom of the boxes and lighter items on top to prevent damage.

  5. Wrap Fragile Items Carefully: Wrap delicate items individually with bubble wrap or packing paper. Fill any empty spaces in the box with packing material to prevent shifting.

  6. Pack Clothes Efficiently: Keep clothes on hangers and use wardrobe boxes to transport them easily. For folded clothes, use suitcases or sturdy boxes.

  7. Disassemble Furniture: Take apart furniture that can be disassembled to save space and make it easier to transport.

  8. Label Boxes: Clearly label each box with its contents and indicate if it is fragile or requires special handling. This helps movers know how to handle and place the boxes.

Remember, proper packing is the foundation of a successful move. If you prefer to leave the packing to the professionals, our team at YEG Edmonton Movers offers full packing services to ensure your belongings are packed securely and ready for transport.
