    How to Pack the Box at Home

    When a moving box is properly packed, it isn't just stuffed with random items. Even though this may seem easier at first, unpacking will become a nightmare, and your possessions are more likely to break.
    Packing, traveling, and unpacking again can be made easy and risk-free by utilizing several systems.
     
    Here's a guide to help you pack cardboard boxes correctly and prepare for a move.
     

    Don't Try to Overload the Box

     
    Having full boxes is good, but you don't want them to be too heavy.
    In the event that you are unable to move the boxes yourself, you will need to repackage them. A heavy box will require at least two people to carry, and that can be more trouble than it's worth.
     

    How much weight should cardboard boxes have?

     
    That depends on the size.
     
    Boxes shouldn't weigh more than 30 pounds (unless they can be moved easily). However, if you have a large box, it could become very heavy.
     
    Before packing your cardboard box, check the bottom. There will be a weight limit on the bottom of most moving boxes. It is a good idea to start with this number.
     
    And Always Use Small Boxes
     
    You might think packing 10 big boxes will be easier than packing 30 small ones, but then you’re stuck with the same problem.
     
    If you can’t move the boxes on your own, you’ve made a harder job for yourself in the long run.
    Always stick with smaller boxes. It might take a little longer to pack them all up, but they will be a lot easier to move and transport.
     

    Consider the Weight of What You’re Packing

     
    Some items are so heavy small boxes still aren’t small enough.
    Imagin stuffing a box full of books. Even though you can usually move that size box without a problem, when it’s full of books, it becomes a different story.
     
    Extremely heavy items like books should be packed in small amounts, even smaller than your normal boxes. It might be frustrating to separate these items into small stacks, but unless you want to struggle with a heavy box, it’s the way to go. Also Read the Creative ways to pack lash extensions.
     

    Didn’t you just say not to overload our boxes?

     
    Yes, but there is a difference between overloading a box and packing it completely full.
    You don’t want your boxes to be too heavy to move, but you do want them to be full to the brim.
    Why is this?
    Because boxes get stacked during transportation, and if a box isn’t completely full, it’s likely to collapse.
     
     
     
     
    If you don’t have enough kitchen items to fill your last kitchen box, fill the remaining space with paper or other packaging supplies before you close it. This will keep it from smashing and damaging what’s inside. It helps you to pack the box perfectly and tightly.
     

    If You Can’t Close the Lid, Take Something Out

     
    The lid of your box should be able to close easily. If the lid is bent or bulging when you close it, take a few items out and try again.
     
    Overstuffed boxes can rupture during the move, so it’s always better to grab an extra box instead of trying to cram the last few things into one that’s already full.
