Good packing is essential for a good move. If you choose to do some or all of your own packing in preparation for your move, it's especially important that you be familiar with the techniques that will best protect your possessions.
Limiting cartons, when possible, to a maximum weight of 50 pounds to make handling easier.

1.Wrapping items carefully.
2.Providing plenty of cushioning
to absorb shock
3.Using sturdy cartons that close.
4.Making sure cartons are firmly
packed and do not rattle, bulge
outward or bend inward.
5. Not mixing items from different

rooms in the same carton, when
possible.

important documents.
