If you’ve got a long list of delicate items ready for domestic and business removals in Edinburgh, check out these essential packing tips to keep them intact.

Useful Tips to Pack Delicate Items During Edinburgh Removal

Use the right type of box for each item.

Small boxes are ideal for keeping heavy fragile items securely throughout the move. Glass and ceramics including kitchenware, vases, and other breakables are comparatively heavier than other sturdy movables. 

Packing delicate items in small boxes reduces free space inside, minimising the risks of potential damage during the handling process.

Tip: Use padded inserts to fill the empty space so that the contents remain intact in the box. Avoid using thin cardboard boxes.

Get suitable packing supplies for delicate goods.

Expert movers in Edinburgh use various packaging materials to protect sensitive items during the move. They bring these packing supplies exclusively for electronics, glassware, ceramics, antiques, and other delicate objects.

Boxes to pack and handle individual pieces with utmost care. 

Protective bubble wraps add an extra layer of safety from external pressure. 

Soft packaging peanuts fill the space in the boxes and resist the impact of shock or vibrations while being in transit.

Premium packing paper to fill the antiques and hollow items like cups and vases for a safety barrier from scratches and marks.

Tip: The moving professionals at Edinburgh removal companies use soft packing supplies for extra cushioning at the bottom of the box.

Do the labelling while packing fragile goods.

Removal companies do labelling so that movers pay attention to the type of goods they’re moving. They ensure to label each box carrying breakable items as ‘Fragile’ or ‘Handle with Care’, or other signs for careful handling. That eliminates the damage risks during the loading process.

Tip: Ensure that the labels are in bold and big letters. Use red or black markers to make them visible.
