Are you planning to move into a new house? Right now for you nothing is more stressful than moving. There wouldn’t be any free moment in your life at present. You have zillions of things to worry about. And one of them is packing your wardrobe. You don’t want your designer clothes to get ruined and wrinkled.
Here we have rounded up the tips to help you pack your wardrobe easily before you move.
Sort Your Clothes
Before you start packing your clothes, it’s better to sort them and discard those that you wouldn’t be wearing any more. This way you can organise and separate different type of clothes be it party wear or daily wear. In separate cardboard boxes you can pack your summer and winter clothing. It will be easy to unpack all your clothing boxes at your new home; also you will be able to quickly arrange them.
Use Wardrobe Boxes
Wardrobe boxes are designed to make it easy to pack your clothes. You can take your clothes to your new home without any hassles in wardrobe boxes. Just like your clothes hanging in your wardrobe, these boxes help you to keep your clothes while transporting them to your new place. These boxes endure that your clothes don’t get damaged or wrinkled. You can order them online from Globe Packaging.
Types of wardrobe boxes available
Standard wardrobe box: This box comes with a horizontal bar that can be placed across the width of the box so that you can place your clothes along with hangers. Yes, this stand-up box has a width between 18-inches and 24-inches, and you can just take all your hangers from your closet and place them in this wardrobe box. No need to have tension about wrinkles during the move. You can pack all your long clothes like dresses and trousers in this box.
Short wardrobe box: A little shorter in height than the standard wardrobe box, this box is ideal to pack all clothes shorter in height like shirts, shorts and t-shirts. Such moving boxes also come with a horizontal bar to place hangers on.
Lay-down wardrobe box: This type of wardrobe box is not a stand up one and also it doesn’t come with a horizontal bar to place hangers on. So it’s not all that useful. This box lies flat on the surface and is good for packing fewer clothes.
Assemble The Box
First you need to assemble the wardrobe box before you start packing your clothes. For this you will need some packing tape. Make your flat box into a cube. Let it stand on the ground. Fold in the flaps on the bottom to close it and make it a flat bottom.
Then, using packing tape secure the bottom flaps together. Take the rod that came with the box and fix it in the slots inside the box. Ensure that the rod is secure and will be able to handle the weight of the clothes hanging on it without falling.
Now you can transfer your clothes from your wardrobe into this box. Make sure your storage boxes are not too heavy otherwise your boxes might collapse.
