Packing Tips for House Shifting: Room-by-Room Guide

Professional house shifting in Jaipur uses 5-layer packing: bubble wrap → foam sheets → corrugated boards → stretch film → sturdy cartons. Each layer has a job — bubble absorbs shocks, foam prevents scratches, corrugated adds rigidity, stretch film holds everything tight, and cartons provide the outer shell. Single-layer newspaper packing is why most DIY moves end in breakage.

• Wrap each plate/glass individually in bubble wrap — never stack bare.
• Use partitioned boxes (cell boxes) for glasses and crockery.
• Fill empty spaces with crumpled paper — movement inside the box causes breakage.
• Seal masala dabbas and oil bottles in zip pouches first, then pack.
• Mark kitchen boxes "FRAGILE – THIS SIDE UP" in bold.

• Mattresses: dedicated mattress bags (not bedsheets) — prevents moisture and stains.
• Clothes: wardrobe cartons with hanging rods keep clothes wrinkle-free; suitcases for the rest.
• Furniture: dismantle beds and wardrobes; wrap each panel in bubble + corrugated; tape screws in labelled pouches to the main panel.
• Sofa: stretch film over the full body, then a sofa cover — protects against dust and tears.

• LED TV: custom wooden crating is the only safe method for 43"+ screens. Thermocol corners + bubble + crate.
• Fridge: defrost 24 hrs before; secure shelves with tape; transport upright only — never on its side.
• Washing machine: reinstall transit bolts (they came with the machine); drain all water.
• Photograph all cable setups before disconnecting — saves hours at reassembly.
