upack.com/articles/how-to-move-books Learn how to pack books with care in this video. We'll show you a few options to protect your collection, including several ways to stack the books and the best way to prevent wrinkles and tears that could damage the pages.

-Use smaller boxes to prevent overloading. You can use larger boxes as long as you don't fill them up all the way
-Because books are significantly heavier than most other household goods, reinforce the box seams with extra tape
-Line each box with crushed packing paper
-Hardback books should be packed spine to spine, while paperback books should be stacked vertically
-Wrap special books in packing paper for extra protection--just be sure to avoid taping the book surface
-Fill in any gaps with more packing paper
