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.
