Packing Tips
Label each box as to contents and room in which it belongs.Mark any containers that have fragile contents. Tape all boxes well and keep the weight of each box under 40 pounds each.It is dangerous to pack any flammable items such as paint, gasoline or matches, etc. Make sure that all lids and caps to bottles are secured.
Soft goods may be left in your dresser drawers. Beak down stereos and put components in separate cartons.
Please note that all fragile and non-stackable items need to be packed in boxes (with tops) especially, all lamp shades, lamp bases, pictures, mirrors etc.
Unprinted newsprint, paper pads,
tape, bubble wrap, odd-sized boxes, overseas boxes and assorted other
packing materials help to protect your valuable items.
