Why Packing Fragile Items the Right Way Matters
When it comes to moving, fragile items like glassware, plates, and electronics require extra attention. At Pro Movers, based in Philadelphia, we’ve seen every kind of packing mistake — and we’ve perfected techniques that keep your breakables safe.
Packing Hacks You Need to Know
1. Double Wrap and Cushion Everything Use soft materials like bubble wrap, packing paper, or even your own towels and clothes. Wrap each item individually, then add extra padding at the bottom, sides, and top of the box.
2. Choose the Right Boxes Use small, sturdy boxes for heavy breakables like dishes or vases. Avoid overpacking — better to use multiple smaller boxes than one oversized, overloaded box.
3. Label Everything Clearly Mark every box containing fragile items with large, bold "FRAGILE" labels. Add arrows to indicate which side is up.
4. Secure Items with Dividers Wine glasses, mugs, and other small items benefit from cardboard dividers. They prevent items from knocking against each other during transport.
5. Don’t Leave Empty Spaces Fill gaps in your boxes with crumpled paper or soft padding. Empty space means movement — and movement leads to damage.
