Before anything else, proper packing is essential to safeguard your fragile and valuable items. Use high-quality packing materials, such as bubble wrap, packing paper, and sturdy boxes. For particularly delicate items, double-boxing offers an added layer of protection. Always ensure that the items are cushioned on all sides and that there is no room for movement within the box. For larger items like mirrors or artwork, consider using custom-sized wooden crates to provide optimal protection during transit.
When it comes to fragile items, clear labelling is crucial. Write “Fragile” on every side of the box, and indicate which side is up. This will ensure that your experienced movers handle these items with the utmost care. Proper labelling also helps when it comes time to unpack, as it ensures the right items are placed in the correct rooms without any accidents.
If you’re moving items that don’t fit into your new home right away, or if there’s a gap between moving out and moving in, consider utilising a secure storage facility. A storage facility can keep your valuable items safe until you’re ready to place them in your new home. Aspen Movers Ltd offers secure storage solutions for customers in Surbiton and surrounding areas, catering to all your storage needs and keeping your belongings safe, dry, and in perfect condition.
While DIY moving might seem like a cost-effective option, fragile and valuable items are best handled by a team of experienced movers. Hiring a professional removal company such as ours ensures that your belongings are in safe hands, and we have the expertise to move delicate items without risk of damage. Experienced movers can also offer advice on the best way to pack and transport valuable items based on their shape, size, and fragility.
When calculating removal costs, don’t forget to include the protection for your fragile and valuable items. Most reputable removal companies offer insurance options for added peace of mind during house removals. This coverage can help protect against any unforeseen accidents that may occur during the moving process.
