How Do I Properly Pack My Boxes?

To start, make sure box is properly taped on bottom to support weight of packed goods. Layer the bottom of box with packing paper to form a soft cushioned bottom. Start by packing heavier items on bottom working to lightest goods on top. Make sure to use plenty of packing paper, packing peanuts or foam to protect your goods. After one layer is packed, make another layered cushion of packing paper on top and start filling box again. This will create an extra layer of cushion inside your packed box. Make sure there are no empty spaces and that nothing is shifting around inside your box. Always pack your box all the way to the top (this will allow for a crush-free box). Once packed to top, fold flaps in and use 3 pieces of tape to ensure top will stay closed. Label your box properly.
