- Have Supplies: Make sure you have enough supplies for your pack, including tape, packing paper and various sized cartons. Ensure that you know what items should be packed in which cartons. If you need supplies, we can supply you with what you require and deliver it right to you.
- Pack Ahead: If you can start packing as soon as possible, you will save yourself a huge headache come moving time. Start by packing items you know you will not need to utilize until after the move.
