Packing That Protects Your Belongings
A single cracked wine glass or dented lampshade can turn moving day into a headache. Professional packing keeps those accidents from happening. Our removalists use proven methods to protect belongings, making sure delicate pieces are cushioned and heavy items are supported.
Wardrobe cartons keep clothes in shape, padded wrapping protects fragile glassware and custom techniques safeguard awkward items like lamps or sports gear. For larger furniture, we disassemble pieces and wrap them securely for the trip.
Packing isn’t just about convenience; it’s about ensuring every item arrives in the same condition it left. With our friendly removalists, clear labelling and careful planning, our packing services turn one of the hardest parts of moving into the easiest.
How do movers pack fragile items like glassware or artwork?
Fragile belongings are individually wrapped in protective paper or bubble wrap before being placed into reinforced cartons with padding. Artwork or mirrors may be packed in custom crates or flat boxes for extra stability.
Moving companies also label boxes clearly so fragile items are handled with extra care. This method greatly lowers the chance of breakages during loading, transport or unpacking.
What packing mistakes cause the most damage during moves?
The most common packing mistakes are overfilling boxes, using weak cartons and failing to wrap fragile items properly. Heavy boxes can split open, while poorly protected glass or ceramics often break in transit. Using makeshift containers like garbage bags can also lead to punctures and spills.
Professional removalists avoid these mistakes by using double-walled boxes and cartons, correct weight distribution and padding that cushions against shocks on the road.
Can professional packers help with antiques or collectibles?
Yes, antiques and collectibles receive special attention during packing. Items are wrapped with high-quality protective materials and may be placed into custom cartons or crates for stability. Extra padding is added to protect delicate surfaces such as polished wood or glass.
For particularly valuable items, a professional removal team often uses double-boxing techniques to absorb shocks. Every step is designed to minimise the risk of damage and preserve the condition of irreplaceable belongings.
Do pre-packing services include handling of valuables like jewellery or cash?
Most pre-packing services recommend that valuables such as jewellery, cash or important documents are packed and transported personally by the owner for security reasons. However, professional packers can provide guidance on safe packing methods for these items if requested.
Secure lockboxes or small, sealed containers are often suggested for transport. This ensures valuable belongings remain protected and easily accessible during the move, without the risk of loss or confusion among household goods.
How do packers prepare electronics for moving?
Electronics such as TVs, computers and gaming consoles require careful preparation. If the original packaging is unavailable, they’re wrapped in anti-static materials, bubble wrap and placed into reinforced cartons.
Cables are disconnected, labelled and stored in separate bags for easy reconnection later. Screens are kept upright and marked fragile to ensure careful handling. Packing electronics properly prevents damage from shocks or vibrations during transport and makes setting up in the new property much smoother.
Can pre-packing services be customised to only cover part of a move?
Yes, many pre-packing services can be tailored to suit individual needs. Some people choose to have only fragile items packed professionally, while handling less delicate belongings themselves. Others may request help with large rooms like kitchens or garages, which are time-consuming to pack.
Customising pre-packing services provides flexibility and allows households to manage costs while still benefiting from professional expertise where it’s needed most.
