You Need These Five Packing Supplies When Moving
Having great information may help to make your moving experience go easier. Packing can be tense and frustrating. Many people may even get the full service moving package which includes an experienced team of movers that do the packing for you. However, there is typically some items that you will want to pack yourself. We asked our team of professional movers for their suggestions on some packing supplies that you will need for a quick and easy move. This is what they advised:
Specialty Boxes
Boxes are completely significant for any successful move, although if you have particular items that you don’t want in a regular cardboard box, you can buy specialty boxes. Specialty boxes can be used for glassware, mirrors, artwork, clothing and mattresses. If you are deciding on using a professional moving company to move locally, they should give wardrobe boxes for hanging clothes free of charge.

Packing Tape
A roll of heavy-duty packing tape ought to be used to firmly tape your boxes during the entire move. Make sure to tape the bottom of your boxes with a lot more than one piece. Commonly, three pieces of tape work best. Put one on the seam, then two side-by-side overlapping the first. It will prevent your items from falling through the bottom, specifically with used boxes.
Bubble Wrap
Quite often bubble wrap isn't a consumer product that most customers use. This is something that movers typically use. If you wish to wrap your fragile items during the move, it’s perfectly ok. We advise that you avoid wrapping glass, pieces of artwork or wood because the plastic in the bubble wrap may melt within warmer conditions. Also, sweat might cause condensation on the piece.

Markers
We advise that you write the room the items actually came out of on the top and sides of your boxes. This is so that the movers know where to place boxes in your new house. When you do labeling on the side, it makes it less difficult to see what is in the boxes whenever they are stacked.
Scissors or Box Cutters
Once you arrive at your new property, you will need a box cutter or a pair of scissors to open the taped-up boxes. This will lessen the time during your unpacking process.
