Some Basic Packing Tips

I'm going to start with some very basic moving tips that I hope will help you pack your belongings safer and more quickly.

Before you even begin your packing experience, you need some supplies to pack your belongings into and to help keep them safe. I will list these supplies below.
  • Boxes. Lots and lots of boxes. Get as many boxes as you can of different sizes for your different sized belongings. Also, its very important that these boxes are sturdy and can hold the weight of the objects that they are carrying
  • Corrugated paper for figurines and other precious items
  • Packing (Foam) Peanuts
  • Tissue Paper for fragile, breakable objects (such as glassware)
  • Tape
  • A scissor to cut said tape and paper
These are the basic supplies you need to get started packing. I will go into more detail about packing certain items like furniture and books in later posts.
