- Fill containers to capacity or fill extra pockets of space with packing material.
- Pack heavy items in small boxes.
- Label each box so you can find what you need.
- Leave space to reach the back of the unit and put frequently used items near the front.
- Don't use newsprint to pack anything that could be stained by the ink.
- Metal objects like tools and bikes should be wiped with a rag containing machine oil to avoid rust.
- Appliances should be clean and dry. Leave refrigerator or freezer doors ajar. Some goods can be stored in appliances and stacked on top of them.
- Pack books flat and put boxes with books or papers on skids or pallets to prevent moisture absorption.
- Clothing, curtains and drapes should be cleaned and stored on hangers.
- Dishes and glassware boxes should have a layer of padding on top and bottom, and each item should be wrapped. Nest bowls and cups and stand plates on end. Fill all pockets with packing.
- Stand sofas and mattresses on end on pallet or plastic sheet. Disassemble beds and tables and wrap legs or put them upside down on floor.
- Stack boxes on dressers and use drawers to store delicate items.
- Store light chairs inverted seat-to-seat.
- Save and use original holiday decoration cartons. Wrap Christmas lights around a piece of cardboard, and put packing paper of newsprint around all of it inside box.
- Wrap large lamp bases in padding and pad smaller lamps and put them in boxes. Pack delicate lamp shades separately.
- Pack mirrors, windows and record albums on edge.
