Packing Tips

1. Keep the following supplies handy for packing: boxes, marking pen, bubble wrap, newspaper and tissue, tape and scissors, tape measure.
2. Label each box with the room the box contents belong in.
3. Write “Open First” on cartons containing essential items such as cooking utensils, toiletries, etc.
4. Write “Fragile” on each side of a box which contains delicate items.
5. Use large boxes for light items and smaller boxes for heavier items.
6. For stacking purposes, try to keep your boxes in uniform sizes. Keep the heavy ones on the bottom and the light ones on top.
7. Fill boxes to capacity because partially full or bulging boxes may tip or collapse.
