| Packing Materials
We recommend purchasing new packing supplies for your furniture from the moving company or other reliable source. Some items such as wardrobe cartons and blankets may be rented and returned. If you choose to use your own moving boxes, check to make sure they are clean and strong enough to do the job. Don’t use old newspapers to wrap anything that may absorb ink. The following is a list of supplies from a professional mover that you may find useful:
- Plastic bags/Mattress covers
- Labels/Markers
- Packing paper and tissue paper for delicate items
- Packing tape with dispenser/Twine
- Corrugated paper rolls for fragile items
- Foam popcorn � Scissors or box-cutter
- Pen and notebook to keep carton ID log
- Boxes of various sizes and specialty types *If you are using long distance moves, be sure to keep out supplies for writing and keeping track of phone calls, inventory and any other important records.
