PACKING & UNPACKING
Packing and unpacking services.
Let us pack the whole home, just the kitchen, or only the pieces you’d rather not handle yourself. Packing and unpacking are included in our hourly moving rate.
PACKING & UNPACKING
What our packing service includes.
Packing room by room
We pack the rooms you choose: kitchens, books, decor, closets and the odds and ends in between.
Furniture wrapped
We wrap furniture in moving blankets and shrink wrap before it goes on the truck, and lay floor runners through entryways.
Taking furniture apart
We take beds, tables and shelving apart for the move and put them back together at the new home.
Unpacking
At the new home we unpack into the rooms you choose, so you’re not living out of boxes for weeks.
All of it, or just some
Pack most things yourself and leave us the fragile pieces, or hand us the whole home. Tell us which rooms or items you want help with.

TIPS
Packing some of it yourself? A few tips.
- 01
Heavy things, small boxes
Books, tools and canned food go in small boxes so they stay liftable. Save the big boxes for pillows, linens and lampshades.
- 02
No empty space
Fill gaps with packing paper so nothing slides around. A box that rattles when you shake it needs more paper.
- 03
Plates on edge
Wrap plates one by one and stand them on edge in a dish box, like records. They take bumps far better that way than in a flat stack.
- 04
Label two sides
Write the room and a short list of contents on two sides of every box, not the top, so you can read it when boxes are stacked.
- 05
Keep hazards out
Leave paint, propane, cleaning chemicals and anything flammable out of the boxes. Ask us about anything you’re not sure of.
Need boxes and packing materials?
We sell moving supplies separately: boxes in several sizes, dish barrels and glass kits, wardrobe boxes, TV, lamp and mirror boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap, tape, and mattress and furniture covers. Order online and pick up in Morrisville. No payment is taken online.

What should I keep with me instead of packing?

How do I get ready for the packing crew?
Set aside anything that isn’t moving, empty the fridge, and point out the fragile and valuable pieces when the crew arrives. Clear space near the door so packed boxes can be stacked out of the way.
