Packing tips
Do you have any tips for packing?
- Tape remote controls and cables for electrical appliances to the back of the relevant appliance.
- Wrap white china, etc., in butcher's paper before protecting with newspaper - it keeps them white!
- Make sure that the following are always on hand - extra boxes, tape, marking pens, newspaper, a small toolkit, garbage bags.
- When dismantling beds make sure that all screws, nuts and bolts, etc. are taped to the relevant piece of furniture - makes reassembly for that first night's rest a breeze!
- Save room by packing breakables amongst towels, blankets and clothing (make sure these boxes are marked FRAGILE!).
- Use your luggage instead of boxes for packing clothing.
- Important documents, money, jewellery and other valuables are best carried with you on the day.
