Packing your belongings is one of the most daunting tasks, especially if it’s your first time moving from state to state. The most frequently asked questions are;
To make things simple and easy, we recommend that you create a moving supplies checklist before you purchase any boxes or packing materials. You can also consult with our moving coordinators on how to utilize each type of box best.
There are many types of moving boxes these days, not just small, medium, and large. You can probably find a moving box for almost every item in your home. When it comes to fragile items, bubble wrap is going to become your best friend. Plastic tubs are also beneficial since they are sturdier than cardboard boxes in the transportation process.
If you are planning to move your mattress, we recommend a couple of packing methods. The first is a mattress bag, and the second is a mattress box. Mattress bags can be purchased online and typically cost between $10-$20, depending on the mattress size. We can provide you a mattress box, and our Denver movers will pack the mattress for you on the moving date.

When it comes to flat-screen TVs, you most likely didn’t keep the original TV box. If that’s the case, there are three options for you to choose from. The first option is to purchase a flat-screen TV moving box kit online or in your local hardware store. The second option is to ask us to pack it for you on the day of your move. The third option is to put it in your vehicle and transport it yourself.

The best way to transport pictures, artwork, and mirrors is with picture/ mirror boxes after you bubble wrap each item. Typically, you can fit two to three items per box. Some artwork may not fit into one box, so you will have to use two picture boxes, one from each end, to create a custom-fit picture box.
Another great way to transport wall artwork and mirrors are in a wardrobe box. Once you hang your clothes, suits, and coats, you can place the bubble-wrapped artwork between the clothes, which is also an excellent protective cushion.

To seal every box, you will need effective yet cheap packing tape because you will be using lots of it. Look for the brown packing tape versus the clear since it’s much cheaper. It is also called Duck Carton Sealing tape, which you can order on websites such as ULINE or sometimes even at Walmart.
