How to Pack Like a Pro

How to Pack Like a ProWhen it comes to moving, one of the most challenging parts is packing. No one wants to spend days packing up their belongings, especially when it is years or even decades worth of items. Knowing the right way to pack will save you time as well as help with the moving in process. Most homeowners have no idea where to start when it comes to packing or moving. By learning how to pack like a pro, you will be able to move with ease, with little to no hiccups along the way!

Sort as You Go

One of the most important things to remember is to sort as you go. Always have a trash bag handy for garbage and a bag or container to be used for donated items. Make this new move a time when you will be letting go of things you no longer need or want, or even use. By donating these things, you are lowering your packing load as well as the amount of stuff you will be moving into your new home.

Have the Right Supplies

To be able to pack up your home, you must have the right supplies. You will need boxes that have a lid or flaps so that the container can be sealed once packed full. You will need various sizes of boxes so that you can pack large and small items. You should also invest in heavy-duty packaging tape. You want to seal your moving boxes with quality tape so that they will stay closed, and your things are not broken or lost due to an opened package.

Use packing materials as well such as newspaper or bubble wrap to keep the breakables safe. Plastic bags can be used to store smaller items or components. You should also label each box with a quality marker so that each box ends up in the appropriate room on move-in day.

Room By Room

As you start the packing process, go room by room. When you are packing up your home, it can seem like an overwhelming job. By taking the process one room at a time, you see accomplishment as you go. This method also makes packing and unpacking your moving vehicles easier. Boxes and furniture packed into the truck grouped by room make it simpler to get everything to its final destination in your new home.

Wardrobe Packing

When it comes to packing clothing, the best way to handle the majority of your clothes is with wardrobe cartons. Keep your clothes on hangers and hang the items in a wardrobe carton box. This will make it super easy to hang your clothing up in your new home without having to rehang every single piece.

These are just a few tips for your packing needs. When you need to know more about packing the right way, ask the experts at Total Storage. They have years of experience in packing and storing and can easily help with all your moving and storage needs.
