If you decide to do some of the packing yourself, we are able to supply the materials that you will need. If you are Packing yourself check your insurance cover – self packing may not be covered.
Self Packing
Start well in advance of moving day to avoid a last minute rush. This is when items get broken or go missing.
You will need cartons in assorted sizes and in clean and good condition – be aware that plastic bags often burst.
Where possible, combine items that will go together in your new home, e.g. items from a bedroom, or study Pack heavy items in smaller, heavy duty cartons for easier removal
Clearly mark the room destination on top and at least one side of every carton, eg. Bedroom 1, etc
Make sure no items protrude above the level of the packed carton, but pack to within 5 cm’s to allow cushioning packing with crushed Paper
Use butchers paper rather than newspaper, as newsprint makes items very dirty and dusty
Leave one box marked to be unloaded first, for items you will require immediately upon arrival at your new home. We can provide you with a priority carton designed for this purpose
Set up a specific area in your home for all items that are not being unpacked immediately
Don’t pack mirrors, valuables or breakables, leave it to the experts
We provide specialised packaging systems catering for almost every household item.
Materials you will need:-
• Standard cartons, Book Cartons, Tape
