🧳 How to Pack Fragile Items:

1. Prepare the Box

• Line the bottom with crumpled packing paper, towels, or foam peanuts.
• Reinforce the bottom with extra tape for strength.

2. Wrap Each Item Individually

• Use bubble wrap or packing paper to wrap each fragile item.
• Secure with tape, but don’t over-tape—just enough to hold the wrap in place.
• For extra delicate items (glass, porcelain), double wrap.

3. Use the Right Box Size

• Don’t overpack. Small, heavy fragile items should go in smaller boxes to avoid too much weight.
• Keep similar items together (e.g., all glassware in one box).

4. Pack Strategically

• Heavier items on the bottom, lighter ones on top.
• Use packing paper or foam between items so they don’t touch.
• Fill empty spaces to prevent shifting—use paper, clothing, or peanuts.

5. Label Clearly

• Write “FRAGILE” and “THIS     SIDE UP” on all sides of the box.
• Note what’s inside (e.g., “Kitchen Glassware”) to make unpacking easier.

🥂 How to Wrap Crystal(Glasses, Stemware, etc.)

1. Stuff and Wrap

• Stuff the inside of each glass with crumpled  paper to support its shape.
• Then wrap the entire piece in packing paper.
• Wrap again in bubble wrap if it's very thin or valuable.

2. Pack Upright

• Place glasses upright in the box (as they would stand normally).
• Use cardboard dividers if you have them—especially for wine glasses or goblets.
• Fill any gaps in the box to prevent movement.

📦 Final Box Tips:

• Use double-walled dish pack boxes if possible—they’re sturdier.
• Add a thick layer of crumpled paper/towels on the bottom and top.
• Clearly label the box: “FRAGILE  – CHINA/CRYSTAL – THIS SIDE UP”
• Don’t overpack or make the box too heavy—better to use multiple boxes.
