Packing Goods Yourself

Alternatively, you can pack yourself by doing the following:

Marking Boxes and Cartons

Tape boxes using two lengths of tape, the first through the middle and across the seam (to hold the box together) the second along the seam (to seal the box.)

Do the same on the top of the box and write across the tape, using a permanent marker, the room where the box is to be placed and a brief description of the contents eg. BED 1 (shoes), KITCHEN (tinned food), etc.

Mark the appropriate boxes ‘FRAGILE’ to ensure careful handling and loading

What Boxes to Use

Small Boxes

Smaller boxes should be used to pack heavy, small items such as books, cutlery and heavy ornaments. Long stemmed glasses, delicate ornaments, very fragile china, glasses and small pictures should also be packed in these boxes. Books, for the most part, should be packed flat. They may be packed on their edges, but never with the opening facing downwards as this may break the binding. Pictures and records should be packed on their edges.

Medium Boxes

Medium sized boxes are the most commonly used and are used for most other household effects such as pots, pans, glass, china, ornaments, pictures, clothing, food, etc. When packing china plates they should be placed on their edges, never flat, on the bottom of the box in batches of three or four, with paper between each plate. When the bottom of the box is covered continue filling with heavy china, Pyrex, mugs, bowls, vases etc. On top of this place glass and china (pack glasses upright.) Fill the boxes to capacity using soft items such as pillows, cushions, towels. It is also a good idea to place soft items between each layer of china. Do not overfill the boxes; keep them square and in shape.

Large Boxes

Larger boxes should be used for lighter items such as clothing, light linen, shoes, bedding, toys, etc. You may also pack light pots and pans in these cartons. Keep back sufficient large boxes for packing of bedding in current use and mark boxes accordingly ie. Bedroom 1, Bedding.
