Royal Home - Packers
and Movers Pune - General Packing Tips
Pack
as much as you can into boxes. This will provide greater
protection for your belongings and will make loading your
trailer much easier. Unusually shaped items take up more
space and make loading more difficult.
Packing and padding your items are keys
to having a successful move. Don't skimp on packing
supplies. They are far cheaper than broken or damaged
belongings. Check our moving related services for sites
that feature a wide variety of boxes and packing supplies.
Please keep in mind that ABF® trailers are not air-ride.
Start packing several weeks before your
move date, taking it one room at a time. Begin with things
you use less frequently, such as books and knick knacks.
Pack each room in separate boxes and label each box with
its contents.
Reinforce the bottom of all boxes with tape. Fill each
box to its capacity, using paper or fillers to eliminate
empty spaces. The top and sides of each box shouldn't
bulge, nor should they cave in when closed.
Pack heavy items, such as books, in smaller
boxes. Keep the weight of each box down to a manageable
level.
Leave lightweight linens and clothing in their drawers.
Pack extra linens, pillows and stuffed animals in large
garbage bags and tape closed. Plan to use these bags as
cushions or fillers in your trailer.
Disassemble any items you can. Be aware of items with
sharp corners or projections and keep them from puncturing
or scratching other objects.
Pack your valuables and essentials separately
and plan on keeping these items with you.
Wrap with
blankets or bubble wrap. Secure padding to furniture.
Do not use tape directly on wood or painted surfaces.
Remove legs from furniture
if possible. Place wing nuts or screws in envelopes or
plastic bags and tape to underside of furniture.
Coat fine wood furnishings
with wax to protect against scratches.
Place sofa cushions and
pillows in bags to use as pads or fillers in the trailer.
Move dressers with contents
in drawers to avoid repacking. Secure drawers from opening
during transit.
If you are moving a piano,
consider hiring a specialist to pack and load it.
Royal Home - Packers
and Movers Pune - Loading Tips
Be Safe
If you have
a sizable shipment and/or heavy items, you will want to
consider renting a ramp and appliance dolly. Both can
typically be rented at reasonable rates, and the additional
cost is worth reduced wear and tear on your body. Check
your yellow pages under "Rental Equipment" or
"Rental Stores and Yards." ABF offers ramp rentals
in many locations. Check with your U-Pack representative
to see if ABF can provide a ramp for your move.
Remember to "squat"
when handling heavier items and lift them with your knees,
not your back. Ask for help with anything that tests your
limits.
Loading in
a pre-planned "smart" order will greatly reduce
loading time and fatigue. It will also ensure a safer
ride for your belongings.
Remember to place cardboard
or plastic sheeting on the floor of the trailer prior
to loading to help protect your shipment. It is also recommended
that you cover your shipment with plastic sheets or a
tarp to protect your items from becoming dusty.
Start with heavy appliances
and load them on the floor against the front wall of the
trailer. Continue by loading heavier items
toward the front of the trailer and on the floor. Save
the space above for lighter items.
Long pieces, such as sofas,
can be stood on end and anchored by other large heavy
items. This greatly reduces the "footprint" of what is normally a significant space taker.
Load lighter items and
boxes marked "fragile" on top and properly secure
them. Load all items as tightly as possible to reduce
shifting, rubbing and puncturing during transit.
Be generous with blankets
and padding, and place cardboard under anything that may
be scuffed or soiled by riding directly on the floor of
the trailer. Load mattresses and upholstered furniture
up off of the floor. Remember to use bagged pillows, stuffed
animals and furniture cushions as well as additional paper
and cardboard to fill all gaps and spaces. Please keep
in mind that ABF trailers are not air-ride.
If necessary, you may
use blocks and braces throughout the loading process.
These can be nailed to the floor of the trailer and are
helpful in preventing shifting. You can also use screwable
hooks and eyes to assist in tying down your shipment.
As a final step, you will want to protect your shipment
from becoming dusty by covering it with large sheets of
plastic. Plastic sheets are cheap, easy to find and definitely
worth purchasing for extra protection.
Once everything is loaded
and secured, you will install a divider wall or "bulkhead." Your bulkhead will be delivered with your ABF trailer.
The bulkhead consists of two panels and is simple to install.
This critical final step must be made with care. Please
refer to our bulkhead information page for installation
tips.
