Efficient Moving: How to Pack Your Boxes

 How to Pack your Boxes Quickly

Your move is fast approaching and you will soon have to tackle the tedious task of cardboard boxes? EkoMovers has some tips and advice for quickly packing your boxes.

When to Start Packing?

Ideally, you should start packing your boxes 1.5 months before the moving date.

Initially, this will allow you to organize yourself optimally and thus ensure that you do not forget anything. The secret to a successful move is organization. So remember, the more organized you are, the more time you'll save on your moving day.



The Necessary Material for Your Moving Boxes

Before you start packing your things in the boxes, make sure you have the necessary moving materials to protect them:

  • Garbage bag
  • Bubble wrap     
  • Old newspapers, tissue paper for fragile items
  • Adhesive
  • Cartons of several sizes
  • Vacuum bags to save space

How Many Moving Boxes Do I Need?

To know the number of boxes you will need, nothing could be simpler. To estimate the volume of boxes, simply refer to the size of your home.

On average, this would give:

  •   For a studio: between 5 to 10 boxes
  • Apartment of 20 to 40 m²: 10 to 15 boxes
  • For a T2: 15 to 25 boxes
  • Large house: up to 100 boxes

Good to know: remember to vary the size of your boxes. You can thus use the small ones to transport your books, the larger boxes for less heavy objects. Also consider opting for flat boxes to carry your paintings, mirrors, as well as wardrobes for clothes.

How to Pack Your Moving Boxes?

Again, be organized. Remember, once you get to your new home, you will need to have the most important boxes on hand. That is to say the boxes of which you will have immediate use: dishes, sheets, clothes.

This is why, to optimize your organization and pack the boxes quickly but above all efficiently, start with your most superfluous goods: DVDs, consoles, books. Make such boxes that will contain everyday objects last.

In addition, a move is always a good opportunity to sort it out! The professional packing services of EkoMovers include the most adequate boxes for the packing of your items.
