Tips for Packing Dining Room Furniture

When it comes time to move your dining room furniture, it's important to ensure that it's properly packed and secure so that it can handle the bumps and scrapes that come with moving. Here are some useful tips from Carlin Brown Removals, a professional removals service based in Bournemouth, to help make sure your dining furniture arrives safe and sound at your new home.

1. Disassemble the Furniture

Where possible, disassemble your furniture into its component parts. This makes it much easier to pack and transport, and takes away the need to worry about space. Be sure to keep any screws, bolts or other fixings organised in a labelled bag or container to ensure that the furniture can be quickly and easily reassembled.

2. Wrap with Care

Use blankets, towels or sheets to wrap larger pieces of furniture like tables and chairs. Secure the wrap with strong tape before you place it in the van, so that it doesn't move around or leave dirt on other pieces of furniture. Foam blanket wrap is also a good option for extra protection.

3. Use Sturdy Containers

Be sure to use sturdy, stackable boxes for your fragile items like glasses and crockery. Ensure that the boxes are labelled and arranged in the van carefully, and don't overfill or overpack the boxes. If possible, fill any gaps in the boxes with packing materials like bubble wrap or crumpled newspaper to reduce the risk of damage.

4. Hire Professional Movers
