Pack well for a breakage-free move

Choosing the right packing materials to protect your belongings

1. Selecting the right boxes and protection

To guarantee safe transport, it’s essential to choose sturdy boxes and adapt the packaging to the objects being transported. Reinforced boxes are recommended for heavy objects such as books or crockery. For glasses and bottles, compartmentalized cartons help prevent shocks. Clothes on hangers can be stored in closet boxes to keep them in perfect condition. In addition to cardboard boxes, it’s essential to use effective protection. Bubble wrap is ideal for fragile and electronic items, while blankets and plaids offer excellent protection for furniture.

   2. Prepare, organize and pack your boxes

Good packing is not just a matter of choosing the right materials: you also need to organize your boxes efficiently. It’s best to avoid overloading them, and ensure a good balance by mixing heavy and light objects. To simplify unpacking, each box should be labelled with its contents and destination room. Numbering the boxes also helps to divide your belongings more evenly and avoid loss.

Heavy items should be placed at the bottom of the boxes, and fragile ones on top. The use of separators for plates and glasses helps prevent bumps and ensures safe transport.

Transporting your belongings safely

1. Methodical loading to avoid breakage

Once the boxes are well packed, loading the vehicle becomes a key step in guaranteeing safe transport. The heaviest items should first be placed at the bottom of the truck to stabilize the load. Furniture should be firmly secured with straps to prevent shifting during the journey.

Fragile boxes should be placed on top and secured to limit movement. Placing non-slip mats under heavy loads also helps prevent them from slipping. Good load layout reduces the risk of damage and facilitates unloading.

   2. Taking precautions for fragile objects

Fragile objects require special care. Frames and mirrors should be transported upright to avoid breaking under their own weight. Electronic equipment, such as computers and televisions, should be placed in rigid boxes and protected with bubble wrap or foam. For high-value items, it’s better to transport them yourself rather than leave them in the hands of a truck. Keeping a box with your most important belongings (administrative papers, jewelry, sentimental items) close at hand will prevent any loss.
