Art pieces and home decorations often hold sentimental or monetary value, making them some of the most delicate items to pack. Here’s how to pack them safely, using the services of Hire A Mover, Hire A Packer, and Hire A Box.
1. Use Specialty Boxes for Artwork
Large, fragile pieces like framed art require extra care. Hire A Box offers specialised boxes that are perfect for transporting artwork. Use bubble wrap or foam to protect the frame and glass, and secure the artwork in the box. Label the box as “fragile” to ensure extra care during the move.
2. Carefully Pack Smaller Decorative Items
Smaller home decorations, such as vases, sculptures, or wall hangings, should be wrapped individually in packing paper or bubble wrap. Place these items in sturdy boxes, making sure to fill any gaps with packing material to prevent movement. Hire A Packer can help ensure these fragile items are packed correctly and securely.
3. Secure Mirrors and Glass Decorations
Mirrors and other glass decorations need extra protection. Wrap them in moving blankets or bubble wrap, and use corner protectors to avoid damage during the move.
