Get helpful tips and advice on how to pack moving boxes efficiently and safely to avoid damage in transit.
Monday, May 23 2011
Everyone looks for ways to save money when moving...especially when it comes to boxes.
They often search behind stores and even in the trash. Why buy boxes when you can get them for free? But the right boxes can actually save you money, by saving your belongings from damage.
Dish packs are especially helpful. They have built-in dividers to protect glassware. Theses boxes save time too by eliminating the need for individual wrapping.
Plate pack boxes are just the right size to prevent jostling. Place bubble wrap between the plates for protection from chipping and scraping. Wardrobe boxes provide a hanger bar to keep your clothing in the best position for moving.
There's less damage than just piling clothing in a box still on the hangers. That can cause snags or rips. Storage File Boxes make moving paperwork easier. So, specialty boxes are worth considering, but what about regular ones? Boxes made for moving have integrated handles that make carrying easier. They are sturdier than standard. The sizes are designed just for moving.
The right moving supplies can also be worth the money. Tape guns can make a move so much easier. Cushioning is essential and bubble wrap doesn't leave black ink residue the way newspaper does. Bubble wrap can also be recycled. Padded paper wrapping protects furniture legs.
And then there's Mirror boxes - perfectly designed to keep moving from becoming a shattering experience.

Customer Reviews
Excellent customer service. Very helpful and accommodating. We packed up the cube and they did the driving! Very reasonable $. Definitely recommend. :)
Moved from IL to CO with UPack and it was an absolutely trouble-free experience that ended up cheaper than hauling it myself! Notes from my move for others: 1. Contents shift and bounce around a lot - strapped items traveled best 2. Be sure to schedule your pickup via the link sent by text 3. I had a couple minor issues which the ABF staff quickly addressed. 4. Glassware boxes (from another company) traveled great. 5. Freight trailers tend to get a little dirty, so plan accordingly. 6. 150 y... See Moreear-old curio traveled on 4 little legs perfectly fine (strapped to wall) Would Upack again 5-stars.!
UPack was AWESOME!!!! Worked with Paul in Nebraska, Angie and Robert in Jacksonville, Florida!!! Everyone was amazing, professional and everything from start to finish was handled with flawless precision. We couldn't be happier with how everything went and will continue to tell any and all people that we come across that UPack is the way to go if they are going to make a move with there family. You take the hassle, frustration and overall stress out of moving with all of the services that yo... See Moreu offer and I couldn't be happier with how things turned out! Thank you from the Brown family and for getting us back home after 20 years of Military Service.
State2state movers cheated me with no move by taking 300$ advance. Then i heard about Upack from my friend. Upack helped me with immediate move and it was hassle free and damage free. No cheat No extra cost prompt delivery with storage. I recommend this.
Great experience from beginning to end -- personalized attention, on-time delivery and drop-off, and friendly/helpful driver's.
