But that may not be all you need. Take a look at this list and see if you'll want any of these on hand while you’re packing or on moving day.
- Colour markers for labelling boxes. (Tip: Colour coding boxes by room will make unpacking much easier.)
- Stretch wrap to protect larger items that can't fit into a box.
- Small plastic bags to store dis-assembled parts, such as sofa legs, cabinet hardware, etc. (You don't want to lose them!)
- Moving blankets to protect floors.
- A dolly or hand truck to move heavy items. (You can rent these.)
- Mattress moving bag. This helps prevent stains and tears during your move. You can also buy specialty bags for sofas and tables.
- Reusable foam furniture sliders, to protect floors when furniture needs to be pushed into place.
- Foam corner protectors. This prevents furniture with sharp corners from banging and damaging other items during a move.
Planning ahead and having the right packing materials on hand will make your move less stressful and, hopefully, damage-free!
