Packing tips and hints, practices
From the list below you can read how to package what is appropriate and safe for international transport and moving.
Kitchen
The dishes, glasses, plates, it is appropriate to pack into smaller boxes. Fragile items should be wrapped in newspaper or in bubble foil and placed into boxes. If you have a complete box set of wraps, place it at the bottom of the plates, and the more fragile cups, mugs on the top. Close the box with strong adhesive and make sure it will not open in the bottom when lift it up. Label the box clearly: FRAGILE.
Tips: Extra protection can be provided to your glasses if wrapped in newspaper place it in a larger pot then cover with adhesive tape.
Living Room
Books, CDs, DVDs also should packed into smaller boxes. Ornaments, glass, ceramics should be wrapped in bubble paper or boxes in all cases. Electronics preferably in their original box for shipping. If the original box is not available, these items are placed in the box according to their size individually and do not load on them anything. Screwed up the carpets so as to be outside the lower part. Secure the roll of tape that will not be deployed into delivery.
Tips: Draw a clear garbage bag or plastic bag at the rolled-up carpet’s end which taped around tightly to avoid losing. Thus the carpet can be put down without contact the edge on the ground and gets dirty.
Dismantle the lamps, chandeliers if possible and wrap the pieces in paper, bubble wrapping or other packaging material. When transporting pictures more picture can be packaged together separated by similarly sized paper – thus protect each other from potential damage. Label the package: Fragile. Furniture, large bottles good to wrap with bubble foil. For other large size items our company provide blankets during transport. Your clothes can be packed in bigger size boxes or bags too. Fold or wrap them together and fill as many bags as long as fits in comfortably – no need to push them together. Toys also can be delivered in bags, in box – these not required special precautions during packing. Delivery of plants should be in strong, open box or in chest. Other fixtures (such as sofa, armchairs, beds, mattresses) cover only with foil, taped will be shipped to prevent them from dust and moisture.
