How Do You Prevent Decorative Items From Breaking During a Move?

Before packing, create a simple spreadsheet or handwritten list.

Record:

Photograph valuable or sentimental pieces before wrapping them.

This gives you a record of their condition before transportation.

If something appears damaged after the move, having photographs and an inventory can make the situation easier to document.

How to Organize Decorative Boxes During Moving Day

Don't wait until everything is packed to think about loading.

Keep fragile decoration boxes together when practical.

Make sure they're clearly identified.

During loading, communicate with anyone helping you. Let them know which boxes need special care.

If professional movers are handling the loading, point out fragile boxes and explain any special instructions.
