Packing Hacks
Moving day is the destination - the moving journey itself starts long before. Anyone who’s ever moved home knows the struggle of packing all their earthly belongings with the clock ticking, never knowing if these boxes are enough to keep everything in one piece. And for those who don’t, experts are sharing their top tips on making packing painless… instead of the alternative.
It’s commonly seen as one of the most time-consuming and stressful parts of the home-moving process. If you’re reading this, you probably agree. Wise decision - packing for a multi-story home can take many hours of preparation alongside long days, even weeks of manual labor. That’s before the actual struggle of moving day itself. Don’t be packed into a corner - prepare like a pro with these pointers.
Boxes Won’t Suffice
Your main priority? Protecting your belongings.
And not just on their way out of your old home - but also en route to the new. Your packing materials need to take the (potentially long) journey on the road into account. So don’t stop at cardboard boxes. Wrap your items with paper and (as the name suggests) bubble wrap for extra padding. Fill the boxes with packing peanuts to fill up unused space. And when it comes to your furniture, use shrink wrap to hold everything together and prevent unnecessary movement.
Onions have layers. Your packing materials should, too.
Don’t Forget the Labels
It’s a little-known part of packing, but an indispensable one. Your future self will thank you for clearly labeling your packed boxes.
Kitchenware, books, stationary, keepsakes - the list goes on. Simple labels on the side of the box will inform you of what’s what during the chaos of the loading and unloading stage - there’s no room for confusion.
Extra tip: using actual labels is more effective than scrawling on the side of the box. Labels are more noticeable, and you’ll find yourself placing boxes down in such a way that the label is at the front and easy to spot. Unpacking shouldn’t be a lottery. Know exactly which box is which, and where its contents belong at a glance.
Follow a Packing Timeline
Option A: run around in a panic, throwing random things into random boxes. No rhyme, no reason… no result.
Option B: take inventory. Map out a real plan of what needs packing, and when. Go room by room, identifying items for moving boxes, garbage bags, or donation bins. Handle your packing little by little, piece by piece. Slow and steady. Manage your move lest it overwhelm you.
Experts say the choice is clear. An efficient move follows a pre-made plan, and packing is no exception.
Find Professionals Who’ll Do It All
While DIY is an option, it’s not for the faint of heart - or those with an abundance of belongings.
Did you know that professional movers will typically handle far more than the move itself? Many will offer full-service packing assistance, taking care of the entire task on your behalf. That includes sourcing packing supplies, boxing and wrapping everything up while following the aforementioned protective steps, and labeling your boxes to help with organization and coordination.
Even better, some companies will be able to unpack at the destination - which means they cover the hard work, you focus on making your new house a home.
Final Thoughts
By following the above tips, you’ll turn what’s normally a tough ask into a simple task. Packing can be painful, but it doesn’t have to be. Of course, experts say the best move is to keep a lookout for moving companies offering either full or partial packing services. They’ll show you how it’s done - so you’ll know for next time.
