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

How Do You Protect Items answered by iBox Moving experts

How Do You Protect My Belongings During the Move? – FAQ from iBox Moving

How Do You Protect My Items During the Move?

At iBox Moving, the safety of your belongings is our top priority. We use professional tools, materials, and techniques to make sure everything arrives at your new home in the same condition it left.

Furniture Protection

  • Blanket Wrapping: All large furniture pieces are wrapped in thick moving blankets to prevent scratches and dents.
  • Shrink Wrap: Used on upholstered furniture or items with drawers to secure them during transport.
  • Mattress Bags: Optional covers to keep your mattress clean and dry — available upon request.

Floor and Doorway Protection

We can use runners and door jamb protectors upon request, especially in buildings with strict HOA or apartment move-out rules.

Boxed and Fragile Items

  • We stack and secure boxes tightly in the truck to prevent shifting.
  • Fragile items (glass, dishes, electronics) are labeled and handled with care.
  • Heavy boxes go on the bottom, lighter ones on top — always balanced and safe.

Special Handling for Delicate Items

For pianos, art, TVs, mirrors, or high-value pieces, we use extra padding and proper tie-downs inside the truck. Let us know in advance so we can bring what’s needed.

Do You Offer Extra Insurance?

We’re fully licensed and insured. Basic valuation coverage is included with every move. If you want full value protection, we can walk you through options or connect you with a third-party insurer.

Want Extra Peace of Mind?

Let us know what matters most to you — and we’ll take extra steps to secure it. Our crews are trained to treat your home and belongings with care and respect.
