How to pack your bedroom for moving

Are you ready to start packing your bedroom? First – prepare all the materials you will need:
Sturdy moving boxes;
Packing paper;
Labels and marker;
Packing tape.

Follow these tips for fast and efficient packing of your bedroom:

Clothes/Linens

Use wardrobe box for your clothes, especially if you want to avoid wrinkles on them. If you have no problem with the wrinkles, or you don't have a wardrobe carton – remove all your clothes from their hangars, fold them and place them in a suitcase or a moving box. Don't forget to line the bottom of the box with packing paper! This will protect your linens too.

Appliances

Wrap all the small appliances (clocks, radios, etc.) one by one and pack them all in a box cusioned with wrinkled paper. Fill the gaps good, so the appliances are not moving.

Books/Photos

Pack the books with the spine down and the open side facing up. This will save the corners of the books during the move. Use smaller and sturdier boxes, as the books are heavy by default. After all – you need to be able to move them.
When you are packing photos or frames – wrap them individualy and put them in the box on their edges. Use crumpled paper to fill the gaps, so the books/photos won't shift during the moving process.

Bed

Disassemble your bed and ensure all bolts are packed with the bed pieces. StrongMove can supply special carton and moving blankets that will protect your mattress from dirt and dust during the move.
