Gather supplies first
Before you pack a single box, stock up:
- Uniform boxes (small for heavy, large for light)
- Packing tape, paper, and bubble wrap
- Markers and labels
- Stretch wrap for furniture and drawers
Pack room by room
Finish one room before starting the next, and label each box with its room and contents. Heavy items go in small boxes; pad fragile items and fill gaps so nothing shifts.
The essentials box
Pack one box (or bag) you keep with you: chargers, toiletries, meds, documents, a change of clothes, and basic tools. It carries you through night one before everything's unpacked.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions

Yes — ask about full or partial packing when you request your quote.
How do I pack fragile items?
Wrap individually, use plenty of padding, fill empty space, and label boxes 'fragile' clearly.
