If you are moving, you need to inventory and separate your items so you’ll know which supplies to buy for keeping your belongings safe and secure. Supplies come in various forms; therefore, you need to prepare accordingly.
For example, one type of moving supplies in Plymouth, MA used frequently during moves is bubble wrap. Bubble wrap comes in various sizes and thicknesses. For example, a large roll of bubble wrap that is 3/16 inches thick is ideal for protecting such things as lamps, platters, keyboards, or other lighter weight items. Bubble wrap that is a little thicker (such as 5/16 inches) is often used for wrapping televisions, stereos, and similar electronics.
Do You Need a Mattress Bag?
Moving supplies also include twin, full, queen and king-sized mattress bags. You may also need protective plastic covers for your sofas and chairs. A quilted moving pad can be used when moving furniture as well.
Selecting the Right-sized Box
When it comes to boxes, these moving supplies are available in various sizes. Make sure to pack heavier items, such as books, in smaller boxes, and odd-shaped or lighter items in larger boxes. File boxes are also available for use as are wardrobe boxes. Wardrobe boxes may be used to hold clothing along with drapes, toys, patio furniture, and larger sized house plants.
Again, set aside small boxes for books, tools, canned goods, dishes, and glasses. Mid-weight items — such as cookware, toys, decorative accessories, and kitchen utensils — can be packed in medium boxes. Pack your lampshades, computer monitor, or food containers in large moving boxes. Reserve extra-large boxes for bulky belongings, such as linens, pillows, towels, comforters, and stuffed toys.
