How to Pack Fragile Items for a Stress-Free Move

Moving fragile items doesn't have to be a gamble. Here's a simple checklist to follow before the movers arrive:

1. Use bubble wrap generously — double-wrap anything with glass or ceramic.
2. Pack heavier items at the bottom of the box, lighter ones on top.
3. Fill empty gaps with packing paper so nothing shifts in transit.
4. Label every box "FRAGILE" on all sides, not just the top.
5. Keep valuables and irreplaceable items with you rather than in the moving truck.

Following these steps can save you from costly breakages and a lot of move-day stress.
