Why Quality Packing Materials Matter in Relocation
Moving home or office is common—but keeping goods safe from bumps, moisture, and handling errors requires the right materials. High-quality packaging provides a first line of defense against impact, abrasion, and weather. It also keeps shipments organized so unloading and setup are faster and smoother at the destination.
Types of Packing Materials We Use
| Material | Primary Use | Key Advantages | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Corrugated Carton Boxes (Cartarage) | Core container for most household and office items | Strong, stackable, lightweight; available in moisture-resistant laminate | Books, utensils, clothes, small electronics |
| Bubble Wrap Sheets | Cushioning layer around delicate items | Shock absorption; scratch protection; reusable | Glassware, crockery, photo frames, decor |
| Foam & EPE Sheets | Edge and surface protection | Prevents dents, distributes pressure, clean removal | Appliances, furniture surfaces, metal goods |
| Thermocol (EPS) Blocks | Void fill and rigid cushioning | Lightweight, form-fitting, excellent shock resistance | Electronics, lighting fixtures, models |
| Stretch Film & Shrink Wrap | Moisture/dust barrier; bundling | Holds drawers/doors shut; reduces scuffs; weather shield | Sofas, wardrobes, office chairs, drawers |
| Packing Tape & Tamper-Evident Tape | Sealing cartons and wraps | Strong adhesion; tamper visibility | All boxes and protective wraps |
| Nylon Ropes & PP Straps | External binding and load security | Prevents accidental opening; deters tampering | Heavy cartons, palletized loads |
| Corner/Edge Protectors | Reinforcing vulnerable edges | Stops crush damage; improves stacking strength | Tabletops, mirrors, framed art |
| Wooden Crates & Plywood Cases | Maximum protection for high-value items | Impact resistance; can be sealed and strapped | Glass tables, antiques, TVs, machinery |
| Waterproof Liners & Laminated Cartons | Rain and humidity protection | Moisture barrier for sensitive goods | Documents, textiles, electronics |
| Labels & Inventory Tags | Organized identification | Room-wise sorting; faster setup | Every packed carton and crate |
Corrugated Cartons: The Foundation of Safe Packing
The carton is the most important element. Shreeji Packers and Movers select thickness (3-ply, 5-ply, 7-ply) based on weight and fragility, and use laminated, water-resistant options during monsoon moves. Each box is sealed with heavy-duty tape and reinforced with PP straps where needed.
Ropes, Straps & Seals: Keeping Boxes Closed and Secure
Strong nylon ropes and PP straps prevent accidental openings and discourage theft. For high-value items and wooden crates, we can add numbered seals, so any tampering is obvious at delivery.
Special Handling for Fragile & Glass Items by Shreeji Packers and Movers
Glass items need extra attention. We follow a multi-layer approach: soft tissue or foam to protect surfaces, bubble wrap to cushion, corrugated rolls for rigidity, and finally a snug outer box or a custom wooden crate. Fragile cartons are clearly marked and loaded last, unloaded first, and isolated from heavy goods.
For mirrors, glass tops, and artwork, edge protectors and crate bracing prevent flex and corner impacts. This method keeps delicate items safe even over long routes.
Waterproofing & Weather Security
Bad weather shouldn’t stop a safe move. We use laminated cartons, internal poly liners, and stretch film to keep out rain and humidity. Upholstery is wrapped fully to avoid stains and odors. For documents, we add waterproof pouches or place files inside plastic bins before boxing.
Anti-Theft Measures & Transit Security
Security is as important as cushioning. In addition to strong ropes and straps, we can use tamper-evident tape, numbered seals on crates, and room-wise inventory lists. Cartons are stacked so seams are not exposed, and high-value boxes are placed deeper inside the load plan. At delivery, we cross-check every item against the inventory for complete accountability.
Quick Packing Checklist
- Choose carton thickness to match item weight
- Wrap fragile items in foam + bubble wrap
- Use edge protectors for glass and tabletops
- Seal with heavy-duty, tamper-evident tape
- Strap heavy boxes with PP bands
- Waterproof sensitive goods during rains
- Label room and contents clearly
- Load fragile last, unload first
- Maintain inventory for each box
- Opt for crates for high-value pieces
