58. Packing Tips That Actually Save You Time and Protect Your Stuff
Packing is the part of moving most people dread — and the part where small mistakes cause the most damage. Done well, good packing protects your belongings and makes unpacking painless. Done poorly, it leads to broken items and boxes you can't make sense of for weeks. Here are the packing strategies professional movers use, whether you're moving across [the metro Atlanta service area](/service-areas) or just across town.
Gather sturdy boxes in a few sizes, packing tape, bubble wrap or packing paper, and markers. Don't overload large boxes — heavy items go in small boxes, light items in large ones. A box you can't lift is a box that breaks or hurts someone.
Packing one room at a time keeps you organized and makes unpacking logical. Finish a room completely before moving to the next, and keep each room's boxes together.
