Kitchen Packing: 4 steps to help you keep your things safe

Declutter your kitchen

Empty cabinets and drawers. Donate unused blenders or toasters. Gather perishable goods and properly discard them. Then pack long-lasting items. Movers will not take many perishables — see items your moving company will not move.

Pack your kitchen items

Place similar items together such as pots and pans and stack them within one another. Individually wrap cups, mugs and other fragile goods. Use fillers to minimise space. Label fragile goods. Moving boxes includes dish packs.

Setting aside essential items

Set aside utensils, small pots and pans, and knives and forks so you can cook on moving day. Easy meals for moving days helps the first nights.

Packing food

Label perishable and unperishable goods. Place freezer and fridge food in appropriate packaging to avoid leaks. Get a quote.
