How to Pack a Room Corsicana TX

Beginning to pack your house can seem like a daunting task.  Follow these pointers and you’ll quickly gain control of the situation.

Getting Started

• Set up a table in the center of the room as a "staging area". Place your boxes and packing materials near the table so they are easily accessible.
• Pick a starting point in the room and begin packing in a clockwise direction.

Packing the Boxes

• Use common sense and put heavier items at the bottom of the box and lighter, more delicate things on top.
• Try to fit items closely together in the box to avoid them from shifting during the move.

Packing Breakables

• Line your box with soft padding material. Crumpled newspaper works well.
• Lay out a piece of bubble wrap or several sheets of clean newspaper.
• Put your item several inches below one corner and fold it over so the item is covered.
• Fold the item over so the backside is exposed.
• Wrap a side corner over, turn it over and wrap the other side corner over.
• Keep repeating this process until the item is safely protected.
• If you’re wrapping dishes, you can stack four to five together, as long as there is bubble wrap between each dish.
