  If we do not want to risk that furniture and objects are damaged during the move, it is essential to use suitable packaging for each type of product. Here are 10 tips on how to choose the best packaging:

  

  1. Which packaging? The choice of the type of packaging is essential to ensure the protection of the objects. Choose the packaging based on the shape and fragility of the product.
  2. Little space . If you choose the right packaging, there is no need for it to take up a lot of space. The volume of the packaging, in fact, is not necessarily a synonym of safety.
  3. Lightness . Good packaging does not add much weight to the object to be transported. Materials such as polystyrene and polyethylene, for example, are light and effectively protect against impact.
  4. The use of cardboard . Cardboard is the most suitable material for less fragile objects. Despite this, it is preferable to use protections inside the boxes such as polyethylene or polystyrene.
  5. The use of wood . If you have to carry large objects, wooden boxes are the most appropriate containers, even if you need to insert additional protection inside. Remember that in international shipments, fumigation of wood is sometimes mandatory.
  6. Polyethylene as protection . This material is one of the most used during the move thanks to its shock absorption capacity and its flexibility. It is also a recyclable material.
  7. Polystyrene . Polystyrene is another of the most commonly used materials for packing objects. Its low cost and the possibility of being used in many types of packaging make it useful as additional protection in wooden and cardboard boxes.
  8. Protect the boxes from pressure . The corners are indispensable if you want to make the cardboard boxes more robust and resistant to any pressure.
  9. Packaging for electronic devices . For the transport of electronic devices it is necessary to use antistatic packaging that reduces the accumulation of electrostatic charge.
  10. Contact professionals . If you prefer to avoid DIY, ask for help from a specialized company.
