Packing is one of the most important parts of any move. Doing it correctly can prevent breakage, loss, and headaches. From Mudanzas Diagonal, experts in moving services in Barcelona, we’re sharing our best tips so you can pack your belongings like a true professional.
Invest in Good Packing Materials
Use sturdy boxes, quality adhesive tape, bubble wrap, packing paper, and blankets to protect furniture. Don’t skimp: cheap materials can end up being costly if something breaks.
Use Different Box Sizes
Small boxes are ideal for heavy items like books or dishes. Larger ones are for clothes, toys, or lighter items. Don’t fill large boxes with heavy objects: they might break or be impossible to lift.
Protect Fragile Items Individually
Each glass, plate, or decorative piece should be individually wrapped in paper or bubble wrap. Then, place them vertically in boxes with cardboard dividers and filler to prevent them from shifting.
Label Everything Clearly
Include the contents, destination room, and if it’s fragile. Use colored labels or markers to make it visible at a glance.
Disassemble Large Furniture
If possible, disassemble bulky furniture to make transport easier. Store screws in labeled bags and tape them to one of the pieces.
Don’t Leave Empty Spaces in Boxes
Fill any gaps with clothes, paper, or foam to prevent contents from shifting and getting damaged.
Prepare an “Essentials” Box
Include documents, medications, chargers, basic tools, and some clothes. These will be the first things you need upon arrival.
