It actually isn’t as hard as it may seem as long as you know how to protect furniture before moving it.
That’s why we train our movers on proper wrapping and protection techniques to safely protect furniture and other household items when moving.
Tip:
Use moving blankets and plastic wrap as needed.
Especially when it comes to delicate wooden furniture, there is no such thing as “too much” protection. It’s always better to be safe than sorry–when you’re wrapping up wooden furniture, do it as thoroughly as possible and cover every square inch of exposed wood. Feel free to wrap it multiple times if you have to.
The #1 tip we can give you when it comes to packing a dish box is to use lots of packing paper, foam, and bubble wrap. You can never use too much paper. The more paper you are using, the more protection the items get. The #2 best tip is to contact a professional moving company to help with your move. Pro movers don’t damage stuff.
Packing a Wardrobe Box – Great way to move clothes hanging in your closet

It is specially designed to safely transport hanging clothes during the course of the move (Hanging closet clothes, such as coats, boutique items, suit jackets, dresses, and any other hanging shirts or pants).
Your clothes will not become wrinkled during the move, because you can leave your clothes on the hanger.

*Packing tip:
When moving large pieces of artwork, it is best to pack each piece in a separate specialty box that is slightly larger than the frame you’re packing. If you can’t find specialty boxes, take apart a used box and flatten it.
