Packing Services

Relocating for the First Time? Here's What You Need to Know

When opting for packing services from a moving company, the process is typically separated into two distinct phases: packing and unpacking. This generally occurs days before the actual moving day. A specialized packing team, equipped with all necessary packing materials such as boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, tape, and markers, will arrive and carefully wrap fragile items, categorizing belongings by room or function. Furniture may be disassembled as needed and reassembled in your new home. Once everything is boxed up and labeled clearly, a detailed inventory list is made called the Bill of Lading. This will serve as a reference when loading the truck and upon arrival at your new home. The unpacking phase takes place after your belongings have been safely transported to your new residence. The unpacking team will open each box, starting with essential items for immediate use. Furniture is reassembled, electronics are set up, and items are placed in designated areas based on your preferences. Once the unpacking is complete, they'll remove and dispose of all packing materials, leaving your new space clutter-free and ready for you to settle in.

Packing services for a move include a wide range of tasks designed to provide an efficient and stress-free transition. This often means supplying packing materials, systematically wrapping furniture to prevent damage, boxing up personal and household items, carefully disassembling larger or bulky items to be reassembled at the destination, and labeling boxes for easy identification. China, glassware, dishware, and antiques would be paramount. You would also have the option for unpacking, which would include items being unwrapped and placed into their correct rooms.

How to Choose the Best Packing Services for a Move?

The ideal packing service should tick several boxes: a stellar reputation, a proven track record of reliability, appropriate licensing and insurance, clarity in pricing, and an array of service offerings that cater to diverse needs. We urge you to look for a locally owned and operated moving company as opposed to a national chain so that you can get moving and packing services from a local team who cares.

Are Packing Materials Usually Provided by the Packing Services?

A cornerstone of any quality packing service is suitable packing materials. This includes everything from sturdy boxes and bubble wrap to protective coverings tailored for fragile or unique items. While most moving companies will have the option for packing supplies, you are able to elect to use your own packing supplies as well. However, due to liability reasons, movers will only want to pack boxes that are of good quality and won’t cause potential damage.

At Discipled Movers, our commitment to safeguarding your belongings is paramount. To that end, we've curated a selection of premium packing materials designed to protect and cushion. You may buy from us as you choose. Whether it's the specialized boxes for fine art shipping or the unique considerations for antique moving, our materials and methods are second to none.

Do Packing Services Also Offer Unpacking at the New Location?

Unpacking services, often seen as the other half of the moving coin, are usually offered as optional additions by many moving companies. Beyond just moving items in, a solid unpacking service helps organize, set up, and breathe life into a new space, transforming a house into a home, saving you time and stress. This will include placing larger items as well as unpacking boxes.

At Discipled, we recognize that the move isn't over once the truck is empty. Our tailor-made unpacking services are designed to resonate with our client's visions for their new spaces. This, along with our packing services, is an optional add-on and can be tailored to your needs. That means we can help unpack just a few select items or handle everything.

What Precautions Do Packing Services Take to Ensure Items Are Not Damaged During the Move?

Any good packing service employs a multi-pronged approach to ensure item safety. This means a combination of top-tier packing materials, methodical packing techniques, and dedicated handling protocols to shield against potential damages. Fragile items receive special attention, and everything from furniture to personal effects is safeguarded. This is why you need to search for a moving company that properly trains their packers.

Discipled Movers elevates this principle. Every member of our background-checked team is trained to uphold our stringent standards. Each item, be it a grand piano or a cherished piece of art, is handled with reverence, ensuring a journey free from mishaps. As a locally based moving company, we aim to help you, not only as your mover, but as your neighbor.
