10 Packing Hacks That Save Time and Money

Packing is where moves are won or lost. These 10 hacks come straight from our crews.

1. Don’t empty dresser drawers — wrap the whole dresser in stretch film.
2. Suitcases are boxes — fill them with heavy items like books.
3. Bin bags for hanging clothes — group hangers, pull a bag up from the bottom.
4. Photo your electronics before unplugging — reassembly is instant.
5. Colour-code rooms with tape — movers place boxes correctly without asking.
6. Plates vertical, like records — they survive better.
7. Socks in shoes — free padding, saved space.
8. One “open first” box per room — essentials for night one.
9. Small boxes for heavy stuff — books destroy big boxes.
10. Or skip it all — our full packing service does everything in hours. 054 356 8729
