From small appliances to the bigger ones, cutlery to pots and pans, everything needs to be packed properly and moved safely. Wait, before you start panicking, here is a guide that will benefit you immensely. Scroll down to learn more.

Categorically Sort Things Out

You should start packing your kitchen at least a week before the move. This will give you enough time to sort things and plan accordingly. To start with, first categorically separate the items in your kitchen. Plates, bowls, glasses, cutlery all go under one category whereas your utensils should be kept apart. The cleaning materials like soaps are to be kept separate from the oven mitts and cleaning towels. Equipment should be secluded from everything else. By categorizing the things, you make it easier to pack accordingly, because not all need the type of packing finesse.

Segregate the Essentials From The Non-essentials

That old China you received for your wedding has been replaced by the newer versions, and has been rendered useless. You don’t really use it. So what is the point of holding on to it? During the sort out procedure, keep your essentials apart from the non-essentials things (the ones you don’t need or won’t use any longer). Put the non-essential items in a box and do whatever you wish to do with it. (Best bet is to sell it!) There is no point carrying the unnecessary stuff to the new house and crowd space. Also, carrying empty cans and bottles will only make the boxes heavier, leaving little to no space for the essentials things.

Use Proper Packing Materials

Cardboard boxes in varying sizes, bubble wraps, plastic wraps, newspapers, sealing tapes, labels and label makers should be ready to make the process easier.
