How To Pack Your Belongings
<General guidelines>

Start packing sooner than you think you need to because it always takes longer than you think. The first things to pack are things you rarely use such as books you’ve read or wedding china. Use packing material to pad breakable items. Newspapers are good but the ink rubs off fairly easily so be careful. Place breakable items in separate boxes from non-breakables and mark the boxes of breakables “FRAGILE.”

Don’t pack anything flammable like propane cylinders, torches or matches. Buy or find good, sturdy boxes in various sizes. Pack boxes as tightly as you can but don’t load them up too heavy. Put the heaviest items in the box first so the box won’t tip over. 20-30 pounds is the ideal weight for boxes, and 50lbs(22.68kg) should be the absolute maximum.

Don’t use masking tape to seal boxes because it isn’t tough enough—use packing tape, that’s what it’s for. Get a wide-tip indelible marker and label your boxes legibly on more than one side and on the top so that you can read the labels even when they are stacked.

Get an inventory list going on your computer or notepad. Mark boxes for different rooms either by writing things like “Dining” for dining room or with colored stickers to designate destination rooms. Write what’s in the box on the outside of the box—it doesn’t need to be an essay, just a few words.

For things you’ll need right away like bathroom items, cooking items, and some of your clothes, mark those boxes “OPEN FIRST”. Keep anything expensive or irreplaceable with you as you move along with indispensable items like your cell-phone charger and personal items. Put them in a bag or suitcase.
