When homeowners are planning and organising a home move they will hire removalists, not just for them to physically implement the move on the day, but also for their experience and advice. That experience and advice will cover many aspects of a home move, and one of the most important is how to pack items so that they are safe from damage or breakage.
The items in question will range from large, such as display cabinets and appliances, to small items such as ornaments and glassware. It is the latter type we are going to focus on so that you have as much information as possible to ensure that any small or fragile items you pack before your move remain safe until they are unpacked in your new home.
To achieve that, here are ten tips that we have gleaned from speaking to dozens of removalists and which we believe are the most likely to help you pack and transport your small and fragile items from your old home to your new one safely.
Tip #1 – Sort And Categorise: It helps if you sort all your small and fragile items such as glassware, crockery, electronic items etc. so that each group can be wrapped and packed most appropriately.
