Packing Suggestions

• When packing fragile articles, pack the heaviest objects toward the bottom.
• Wrap articles separately with clean wrapping paper.
• Mark your boxes on tops and sides for easy identification.
• If possible, dissassemble furniture and cover for protection.
• Utilize your bureau drawers for additional packing of small items.
• Wrap furniture legs with wrapping paper to keep from getting scratched.
• Mattresses should be covered to keep them clean.
• Chairs should be stacked seat-to-seat with a cloth or paper separating them.
• Appliances should be clean and dry before they are stored.
• Don't pack boxes too heavily so you are able to lift them and if necessary use a dolly.
