International Move Checklist – Packing Materials

What you’ll need
Sometimes you might have to go during a specific time of the day as some grocery shops receive shipments only once a week. You’ll need:
- Small boxes;
- Medium boxes;
- Large boxes;
- Heavy duty boxes;
- Wardrobe boxes.
You can make wardrobe boxes yourself by using a tall enough box and adding a metal rail you can find on eBay in different lengths. Additionally, you’ll need:
- Packing tape;
- Bubble wrap;
- Old newspapers;
- Stretch wrap for furniture;
- Marker;
- Labels.
There are whole moving house kits online you can find for a different type of properties. For a one-bedroom flat, a two-bedroom flat and so on. Another option is to purchase the packing service from a packing and moving company. Moving companies have different types of boxes suitable for all sorts of items and they can do all the packing professionally for you.
