Packing And Boxes Tips To Reduce Stress

Packing and boxes can be a stressful job for both home-owners and businesses alike. Whether you need to store something temporarily or move to a new location, it’s important to ensure that your items are packed in an organized way. Here are some tips from Chelsfield Self Storage to help make the process easier.

First, carefully consider how much space you need for your packing and boxes. Measure the dimensions of all of the items that need to be moved and purchase the right size containers accordingly. Heavy-duty plastic packing containers will provide greater protection during transportation than cardboard boxes. Be sure to designate a "moving box" that contains basic necessities like toiletries and a change of clothes. This will come in handy as soon as you arrive at your new destination.

When packing, separate delicate items with bubble wrap, newspapers or old towels. Fragile items can also be wrapped up individually with packaging tape or extra padding like blankets or sheets. When packing books, always pack them upright and use smaller cartons if possible to reduce weight. Label each box with its contents so you know where everything is located when unpacking at the other end.

Finally invest in good quality locks for your storage unit or moving van when relocating. Chelsfield Self Storage provides tamper-proof padlocks which come with two keys per lock, perfect for securing all types of boxes safely while they're in transit or stored away in our secure units.

Take measurements to ensure you buy the right size containers that fit into your vehicle when transporting them from A to B.

2. Bubble Wrap & Padding - It's important to wrap delicate items up with bubble wrap for extra protection and layer them between pieces of clothing of old towels when stacking multiple items together in one container.

3. Tapes & Label - Packaging tapes can help keep your boxes securely shut while labeling each box clearly with its content will make the unpacking process easier when you reach your new destination (or even when retrieving items from storage).

4. Padlocks - Tamper proof locks will help protect against any unwanted visitors entering your moving van or storage unit during transport or while stored away in BR6 areas if you choose Chelsfield Self Storage services .
