Organization and planning are essential if you plan to pack and move your items yourself. Avoid plastic bags that can spread contamination. Stick to the same-sized boxes for stacking. To avoid caving, make sure you fill the boxes to the brim. But don’t overfill them. Fill in any spaces that are not standard with your items using newspaper or other packing materials. It would be best if you did not pack heavy boxes that are difficult to lift. Also, make sure you choose the correct type of content material. You might consider using heavier packages to protect your books.
Place heavy boxes on the bottom of your moving van and fragile items at the top. Keep rarely used items towards the front. Doing this allows less-used items to be moved to the front of the truck during unloading. To deter theft, keep valuable items out of sight and place fragile items on top of Phoenix pods.
Depending on your budget and time constraints, you may decide that professional movers are worth the cost. Before you trust them with your belongings, do your research on the moving company.
