Top 5 hacks to pack your kitchen essentials while moving

If you plan to move your house, packing up everything else is equivalent to packing up your kitchen. The kitchen is rightly addressed as the heart of the home and requires certain skills to be packed up. The check list comprises of so many bits and pieces of different kinds of objects including sharp, fragile or perishable ones, which could make this whole task a daunting one. You have to be extremely careful while packing your kitchen. Getting in touch with a professional is always a good idea. Van Removals Dublin is taken care of by VipVan, which provides the best Man with a Van services in Dublin.



If you do not want to unpack broken dishes and shattered glasses in your new house, here are a few tips that can help you pack your kitchen like a pro.

1.Clean your appliances

Look out for the original boxes of your appliances for packing them. If you cannot find them, ready a few medium-sized boxes. Clean and dry the appliances before you pack them. Remove any kind of detachable small parts and fragile items like glass bowls before packing. To ensure easy assembly, locate the user manual and tape it in front of the box. Load the appliance in the box first followed by lightweight bubble wrapped detachable fragile items on top.

2.Stack your pots and pans wisely

Grab the biggest pan available and place it into a box horizontally. Stack the left over pans in decreasing order of size into each other. Cover all the lids with bubble wrap and place them on the pans. Another way is to stack the pans in a diagonal position and placing the lids underneath the handles of the pan.

3.Label all the miscellaneous items and food items

The first thing to do is to throw away all the items whose expiry date is near. Load all the remaining food items in tote bags or boxes. Label the boxes properly according to the content that resides in them to making unpacking an easy process.

4. Load the plates carefully

The box you choose for stacking the plates should be double tapped from the bottom for extra support. Make an extra lining of large pieces of bubble wrap on all sides of the box. Leave enough bubble wrap to cover the top of the box after loading plates. Place enough bubble wrap between two plates and mark that box FRAGILE. Also, draw an arrow showing which side is up.

5. Prepare an essentials box 

Keep aside those things that you might need in the last few days of your previous home as well as first few days of your new home. Things like dishes and cutlery can be substituted by disposable items. Pack the not so frequently used items first and the essentials towards the last.

PRO TIP: proceed by completing the packaging of one area of your kitchen at a time. If you clutter the pantry as well as the drawers all together, you might end up in a big mess.
