If you are moving and packing yourselves when moving house or flat be prepared for a lot hard work.
Our top tip is to ensure you invest in some proper removal packing supplies. It’s easy to think that using boxes from your local supermarket and putting your clothes in bin liners will save you money. But in the long run it will make your packing more chaotic and mean more trips in the van. And it will probably cost you quite a bit in breakages.
Buy strong, double walled cardboard removal boxes. Easy to pack, seal and stack. Different sizes will allow you to pack the heavier items in smaller boxes making them easier to lift and carry. They can be sealed and stacked safely on top of each other. Put the heavier ones on the bottom.
