How to Pack Fragile Items Safely
If there’s one part of moving that makes people sweat, it’s packing fragile stuff.
No one wants to hear that clinking sound when the truck hits a bump.
So here’s how to keep your glass, dishes, and electronics safe:
- Use more padding than you think: Bubble wrap, towels, socks — whatever it takes. Don’t be stingy.
- Wrap items individually: Don’t stack plates like pancakes. Treat each one like it’s special.
- Use small boxes: Less room to shift means less chance of breaking.
- Fill all gaps: If it shakes, it breaks.
- Write “fragile” on all visible sides: Movers aren’t psychic — make it obvious.
Or just let "iBox Moving" do the packing for you. We pack like it’s our own stuff. Follow us for more smart moving advice.
FAQ
Can You Move Pianos and Heavy Items? – FAQ from iBox Moving
Can You Move Pianos?
Yes — iBox Moving specializes in handling heavy, delicate, and high-value items, including upright and baby grand pianos. We have the equipment and experience needed to move your piano safely.
What Types of Pianos Can You Move?
- Upright Pianos: The most common household piano — tall and vertical. We move these regularly.
- Spinet & Console Pianos: Smaller upright models, perfect for apartments or smaller homes.
- Baby Grand Pianos: We can disassemble and transport baby grands safely with proper prep and padding.
How Do You Protect the Piano During the Move?
We use professional equipment: piano boards, heavy-duty straps, moving blankets, and shrink wrap. Our team secures all moving parts and ensures your piano is transported upright and safely loaded.
Are There Extra Charges?
Yes — piano moves require extra time, equipment, and manpower. We’ll provide a flat quote or additional hourly estimate depending on the type of piano, access (stairs/elevators), and distance.
Can You Move Pianos Up or Down Stairs?
Yes, but we need to know in advance. Certain staircases or tight landings may require additional planning or crew. We’ll do a quick walkthrough (or ask for photos) to assess the best approach.
Do You Tune the Piano After Moving?
We don’t offer tuning services, but we recommend tuning the piano a few days after the move — once it acclimates to its new environment.
