Maximise your space
- Have a plan, put items you are not likely to want at the back of the unit
- Stick to 2 or 3 different size boxes to make packing easier and maximising space
- Cover all furniture with protective padding; this avoids any damage to items.
- Place heavy boxes on bottom and lighter and fragile boxes on top
- Stack chairs seat to seat
- Cover and protect all fragile items like TV’s or Painting/Pictures (if possible place in box or crate)
Important: Your health and well being is important, so remember to lift boxes and heavy items correctly. Always bend knees, not your back.
