Packing and moving services can help ease your trouble to a great extent but you still need to plan like an exceptional manager. That’s why we are here to help you with some great tips and hacks that will save you valuable time and look like a pro in front of your family and friends.

Always Start with the Kitchen First

There’s a saying in management that always get the nastiest job done first. The kitchen, with all its weirdly shaped items, is seriously time consuming to pack. Along with that many fragile items, you need to careful while packing. Sit the wife or husband, or friend down and make a list of all the items that you need to take and what all can be left behind. Use bubble wrap to pack fragile stuff. Everything goes in a box, so keep a stock of empty boxes as well.

Packing your Clothes

Never pack your clothes in a box! Many a people have learnt this the hard way, after finding themselves with no clean clothes to wear. Boxes can get easily mixed up, that’s why it’s always better to use suitcases and backpacks for your clothes. Another awesome tip is to put all clothes on hangars and then sliding garbage bags, new ones obviously, over them. This will really ease up packing and unpacking!

Colour Coding Boxes

A great hack to make moving a painless process is to colour code all the boxes. It works this way, you assign a colour to each room and then put all the stuff of that specific room in the box coded with the same colour. Say for your room you have assigned the colour yellow, now you can put all the stuff of your room in boxes marked in yellow.

Packing Liquids

Packing liquids is always a pain, they leak, and they ruin stuff and what not. Most people just dispose them off before moving and purchase new ones. But there’s a great way to pack liquids without worrying about them spilling. Just remove the cap and put a plastic wrap on the mouth and put the cap back on. This will save you a lot of trouble.
