To avoid damage to the goods whilst moving, it is essential to use perfect packing techniques as well as appropriate packing essentials. Here are some simple tips for selecting packing essentials for packing various items.
 
* Pack fragile items such as chinaware and wine bottles in specific dish boxes. To prevent them from tilting, fill the empty space in the box with crushed paper pieces.
 
* Use wrapping paper instead of newspaper for wrapping items. Printing ink from newspapers may stain the items.
 
* Pack items such as refrigerator, television sets and other electronic items in their original boxes. Read the manual of electronic items to know about the extra care to be taken whilst packing.
 
* Use packing tape to seal the bottom of the box and to seal the boxes after packing.
 
* Use leak proof containers to pack medicines and food items such as milk and oil.
 
* Whilst packing washing machine, stuff towels between machine sides and the tub. This prevents the tub from rotating.
 
* Pack items such as mirrors and lamps in separate boxes after wrapping with a bubble wrap. Use loose clothing on the sides of the boxes to serve as shock absorbers.
 
* Never use large sized moving boxes or overload a box whilst packing. They will be very heavy to lift increasing the chances of dropping the box. However, low weight items such as clothes can be packed in large boxes.
 
With the help of above simple tips, it is very easy to accomplish the task of packing and moving successfully without any damage or loss.
