"Using suitable Cartons, Plastic Covers, Packaging Tape and Wrapping paper will ensure your goods can be moved safely and efficiently."
Standard Cartons - large cartons used for crockery, glassware, folding clothes & linen.
Book/Crystal Cartons - smaller cartons for heavy items such as books, wine and foodstuffs,also useful for fragile articles like crystal glasses.
Portarobe Cartons - portable wardrobes for hanging clothes, also usefull for oversize items. We recommend that Portarobes are brought and retrieved on moving day.
Plastic Covers - protect soft furnishings from soiling. China Bear uses robust heavy duty plastic bags that can protect soft furnishings even when negotiating tight and awkward access. Specialised plastic covers can be supplied in various sizes to protect mattresses, ensemble bases, sofas and cushions. (Cheap, lightweight plastic covers are designed as storage dust covers and do not provide adequate protection in transit.)
Tissue Paper - may be necessary for silverware (especialy if being stored) or for fine porcelain.
Bubble-wrap - protects quality frames and glazed pictures, also used for larger or paticularly fragile items.
Kraft-wrap - bubble-wrap with an extra layer of brown paper, used for oil paintings. Kraft-wrap can also be used, as an alternative to Removal Pads, to wrap furniture for transport. This is called "International Wrapping" because it is often used for international shipments.
Packaging Tape - to seal cartons and plastic packages, (One roll will usually do ~ 30 cartons).
Wrapping Paper - to protect china and crockery.
