- Wrap each plate individually.
Stack the wrapped plates in a bundle and rewrap the bundle with more paper.
- When packing, never stack dishes flat. Pack dishes, saucers and platters on their edge.
Nestle your pots, pans, colanders. Cushion between each piece with packing paper. Remove lids from jars and ceramics. Wrap each separately. More information on mover directory here.
- When packing your kitchen appliances like blenders and toasters, make sure they are clean.
Cushion the bottom of the box. Use bubble wrap to pad the appliances all around and on top. Use medium sized carton, and mark it “Kitchen Appliances”.
- When packing boxed food, such as cereals, seal with your plastic tape those boxes which have been opened.
No need to wrap such items in packing paper. Note: If your shipment is going into storage then you should dispose of boxed foods. These items can attract rodents and insects. When packing spices make sure all cans are closed and won't leak. If in doubt, seal them with tape.
