You have invested a lot of care and money in your belongings.
When you move them you want to ensure they arrive safely.
If you prefer Red Box Moving to pack your valuables, our moving crew will arrive with the necessary packing materials.
- Check to see if you have the original boxes for electronics and computer equipment.
If you don't have the original cartons, pack items in standard boxes that best fit them.
Secure items with bubble wrap, paper padding or styrofoam peanuts.
- Tape the bottom of every box; tape the top closed tightly when full. Run two strips of
tape along the side and one strip down the center.
- Use small boxes for heavier items; larger boxes for light weight, bulky items.
- Wrap small and/or fragile items individually. Stuff top, bottom and sides of boxes with
paper. This helps prevent shifting, rubbing and possible breakage.
- Stack boxes to the top to prevent them from being crushed. But don't pack fragile items
too tightly. Stuff with paper.
- Label the contents of every box and the room where it belongs. - Put hanging clothes
in wardrobe boxes.
- Don't pack flammable items: aerosol cans, paints, gasoline, etc.
- Antique pieces can be packed in cartons with padding. A custom crate can be built
around the piece to ensure correct fit and proper protection. Red Box Moving handles
valuable and rare antiques with the utmost care.
- Red Box Moving recommends that you transport the following items instead of including
them in your shipment, as they are not easily replaceable: fine jewelry, coins, currency,
securities, valuable papers, prescriptions and medical records.
The proper preparation of your possessions for loading and transport
is essential to the success of your move.
That is why most people prefer to have their things professionally
packed by us.
