Tips for packing the kitchen
Are you worried about the moving period? First, for some, moving means cleaning the house. This way we eliminate the things we use less. In addition, we make room for new things.
One of the most important parts of a move is packing all personal belongings. Indeed, good packaging guarantees maximum protection of things. However, packing the kitchen is one of the hardest steps. This is due to the number of items and, more importantly, the level of care and packaging it requires due to its fragility. It is therefore one of the tasks that consumes us the most time when we move. That’s why it’s better and easier to start with this bedroom.
In fact, in the kitchen we have a lot of glass. This is the reason why you must have enough care and caution when packing. And if time is of the essence, contact a moving team for a turnkey service.

Kitchen items and their correct packaging
Glasses – Use cardboard boxes with dividers to safely pack your regular or stemmed glasses.
Plates – When wrapping plates, put something between each plate such as a kitchen towel or tea towel.
Frying pan / saucepan – Pack your pots and pans with smaller, lighter items. It is also advisable to pack bottles of oil, vinegar, and other liquids that may leak during transport in your pots and pans. If there is a leak, the liquid will not spill and you can clean everything easily.
Small household appliance: toasters, coffee makers, deep fryers, blenders, etc. – You can also decide to get rid of the old blender or toaster that you have always had! If so, don’t wrap it, don’t throw it away either, give it away especially if it’s still functional and still looks great. There are many organizations that accumulate second hand products in order to give back to those in need.
Plastic containers, Kitchen utensils, etc.
Do not put too many heavy items in boxes.
If necessary, fill the top of the box with pillows, towels, etc. so that it is not too heavy.
Cartons should be completely filled so as not to collapse under the weight of other cartons that are placed on them during transport.
