Packing and Storage Tips

Furniture and Clothes:
Whenever possible, disassemble furniture and wrap table legs in packing material
Stack lightweight chairs seat-to-seat or upside down on other furniture
Place a pallet or plastic sheet on the floor and stand sofas on end
Place a light dust cover over your furniture
Use wardrobe boxes to safely store hanging clothes
Files, Records, and Other Documents:
Be sure to pack your files and documents in smaller boxes for easier lifting
Pack books flat to protect their spines
Use packing material to fill any empty pockets in the boxes
Label all boxes on several sides with the list of contents
Computer and Electrical Equipment:
Make sure your equipment is clean and dry before it is stored
Electronic equipment is best put in plastic bagging before storage to keep out dust.
Any equipment with sealing doors, such as refrigerators, should be stored with their doors slightly ajar
Breakables:
Use dish-pack or glassware boxes for greater protection
Place a layer of packing inside the bottom and at the top of boxes containing fragile items
Wrap each item with protective wrap or foam
Stack dishes on their side and glassware upright
Pack paper into all open spaces to ensure a tight fit
Label all boxes containing delicate items “FRAGILE.”
