Helpful Packing Tips From the Pros
Avoid Common Packing Mistakes
Here are a few smart tips from our team to make your packing process easier and safer:
- Don’t reuse produce boxes—they often retain moisture and attract insects, making them unreliable and unsanitary.
- Stick to packing tape, not duct tape—Duct tape can come loose, causing boxes to fall apart in transit.
- Label boxes clearly – Write both the destination room and contents, and always note if something is fragile.

Packing Tips From the Pros
We’ve helped thousands of clients pack, and here’s what we always recommend:
- Avoid using grocery or produce boxes—they're often weak and carry moisture or pests.
- Use high-quality packing tape, not duct tape—duct tape doesn’t bond well with cardboard.
- Label your boxes with the room and contents clearly on at least 3 sides.
- Keep
critical items like keys, small electronics, and sensitive data drives with you personally during the move.
