Basic Moving Supplies to Have
The cost of relocation can vary depending on the size of your household, the distance of your destination, and the number of items you’re moving. To help you estimate your moving budget, below is a list of the basic supplies that you’ll need. Because every relocation is unique, your moving company will be able to provide you with additional recommendations.
Bubble Wrap
Most moving experts will have tons of bubble wrap on hand. This is helpful if you don’t want to pack fragile items. Just make sure you purchase enough so you can wrap all your boxes. Some communities or apartment complexes have restrictions on how much packing peanuts can be used. So, make sure to read the rules before you start your relocation.
Packing Tape
Never run out of packing tapes during the move because you might need them for emergencies such as sealing more boxes and protecting items in the car. If you’re packing your things, you can use packing tape to seal up containers. You can also use it to seal up moving blankets and paper towels to create a protective barrier.
Small Moving blankets
Moving blankets come in handy during the move. They’re great for protecting your floors and furniture from wear and tear. If you have small children or pets, you can use small moving blankets to cover things like food and toys. You can also use them as makeshift seat covers for your furniture when you’re done moving.
Large Moving Blankets
If you have a large amount of stuff, consider using a large moving blanket. It’s a great way to protect your floors and furniture from scratches and dents. You can also use them to cover your furniture, bed frames, and appliances during the move.
