How To Pack Dishes For Moving

​Packing dishes for moving can be a daunting task, but it doesn't have to be. With a little planning and preparation, you can pack your dishes safely and securely, ensuring that they arrive at your new home in one piece. Today we'll provide a few tips on how to correctly pack your dishes for moving. 

GATHER YOUR SUPPLIES

​You'll need the following supplies to pack your dishes:

• Moving boxes
• Packing paper
• Bubble wrap
• Tape
• Markers
• Gloves
• A sturdy surface to work on

CHOOSE THE RIGHT BOXES

​Not all moving boxes are created equal. When choosing boxes for your dishes, look for boxes that are sturdy and well-made. Avoid using boxes that are damaged or weak, as these are more likely to break during the move.

LINE THE BOXES WITH PACKING PAPER

Once you've chosen your boxes, line the bottom of each box with packing paper. This will help to protect your dishes from any bumps or bruises during the move.

WRAP EACH DISH INDIVIDUALLY

​Once the boxes are lined with packing paper, it's time to start wrapping your dishes. For plates, bowls, and cups, simply wrap each item in a sheet of packing paper. For glasses and stemware, wrap each item in bubble wrap before wrapping it in packing paper.

PACK THE DISHES TIGHTLY

​Once each dish is wrapped, pack it securely in the box. Be sure to fill any empty space in the box with packing paper or bubble wrap to prevent your dishes from moving around.

LABEL THE BOXES CLEARLY

​Once all of your dishes are packed, be sure to label the boxes clearly. This will help the movers to know which boxes are fragile and need to be handled with care.

STORE THE BOXES IN A SAFE PLACE

​Once the boxes are packed, store them in a safe place where they won't be damaged. If you're moving during the winter, be sure to store the boxes in a climate-controlled location.

CONCLUSION

​By following these tips, you can pack your dishes for moving safely and securely. With a little planning and preparation, you can rest assured that your dishes will arrive at your new home in one piece.
