To pack fragile items safely, use high-quality packing materials such as bubble wrap, foam peanuts, and sturdy boxes. Wrap each item individually, focusing on high-risk areas like corners or handles. For plates and glassware, place them vertically in the box with padding between each item. Use soft materials like towels or blankets to fill any gaps, preventing movement during transit. Clearly label boxes containing fragile items, and inform your movers so they can handle them with extra care.

When packing electronics, it’s best to use the original boxes if available, as they are designed to fit the device perfectly. If not, use strong, appropriately sized boxes and pack the electronics with plenty of cushioning material like foam or bubble wrap. Label cords and cables to make reassembly easier, and take photos of the setup before unplugging everything. Pack cords in a separate, labelled bag to keep them organised. For larger electronics like TVs, use a protective cover to prevent screen damage during transit.

If something breaks during a move, take photos of the damaged item and notify your moving company immediately. If you purchased moving insurance, file a claim as soon as possible. Provide documentation, including a description of the item’s value and the extent of the damage. Most reputable moving companies will have a process for handling damaged items, and their insurance may cover the repair or replacement cost. If the item was not insured, you may still be able to negotiate with the company for compensation.
