Packing Supplies Checklist

Introduction

Preparing for a move requires the right tools and materials to ensure your belongings are packed securely and transported safely. At Fragile Removals Waikato, we’ve compiled a comprehensive packing supplies checklist to help you organize and streamline your packing process effectively.

Essential Packing Supplies

  1. Moving Boxes:
    • Small Boxes: Ideal for heavy items like books and small electronics.
    • Medium Boxes: Suitable for kitchen appliances, decorative items, and clothing.
    • Large Boxes: Perfect for lightweight, bulky items such as bedding and pillows.
  2. Packing Tape:
    • High-quality packing tape to securely seal boxes and prevent them from opening during transit.
  3. Bubble Wrap:
    • Provides cushioning for fragile items such as glassware, ceramics, and electronics.
  4. Packing Paper:
    • Use packing paper to wrap delicate items and fill empty spaces in boxes to prevent shifting.
  5. Markers:
    • Permanent markers for labeling boxes with contents and destination rooms for easy identification during unpacking.
  6. Packing Peanuts or Foam Sheets:
    • Additional cushioning materials to protect fragile items inside boxes.
  7. Furniture Covers:
    • Plastic covers or sheets to protect furniture from dust, scratches, and damage during the move.
  8. Box Cutter or Scissors:
    • Tools for safely opening boxes and cutting packing materials as needed.
  9. Mattress Covers:
    • Plastic covers or specialized bags to protect mattresses from dirt and moisture during transport.
  10. Stretch Wrap:
    • Use stretch wrap to secure furniture drawers, doors, and loose items to prevent shifting.
