3 Things You Absolutely Must Have to Pack the Right Way

A Packing Station With a Flat Surface

Designate one room as your packing zone, for instance, the dining room. Make it off-limits for the time you'll be packing. The dining table is a flat surface to use for packing the boxes without straining. However, you can also use the floor instead of the table. Using one area not only saves you time but also helps you get organized. Ensure you have the necessary packing supplies in this particular room.

A Scale

You do not want to keep stuffing your big boxes with items until they cannot be lifted off the ground. A safe weight limit is about 50 pounds. Having a scale to confirm the weight of your packed boxes will save you the hassle of having to remove tape to reduce items when they become too heavy to lift.

Packing Supplies

To pack successfully, you should have quality packing supplies that will ease your work. They include:

• Boxes: Get sturdy, quality cardboard boxes to help you pack your valuables and other items securely.
• Markers: Have several markers for labeling your boxes.
• Bubble wrap: They will protect your items when moving.
• Tapes: Depending on the type of boxes you have, packaging tape will help secure them when you're done packing.
