Appliances: A refrigerator or freezer
should be thoroughly dry and stored with its door slightly
ajar. Some goods can be stored inside large appliances and
boxes can be stacked on top of stoves, refrigerators and
freezers. Make sure that stoves and cooking equipment is
cleaned before they are stored.
Books and Documents: Pack books flat
to protect their spines. Use packing material to fill out
empty pockets in boxes. Do not pack fragile items in the
same box as books and do not overload the box.
Dishes and Glassware: Place a layer of
packing material inside the bottom and at the top of boxes
containing glassware. All glass items should be individually
wrapped. Wrapped glasses should be placed near the top of
cartons. Again, fill all pockets with packing material.
Label all boxes containing glassware, and do not place heavy
items on boxes containing glassware.
Furniture: Place a pallet, corrugated
cardboard mat, or plastic sheet on the floor and stand sofas
and mattresses on end. Disassemble beds and tables and wrap
table legs in paper. If a table will not disassemble, place
padding on the floor and place the table on its top with the
legs pointing up. Use dresser tops for stacking cartons and
drawers for linens or small delicate items. Most lightweight
chairs can be stacked "seat to seat" or placed upside down
on tables which cannot be disassembled. Finally, place a
lightweight dust cover on your furniture.
