North Brunswick Township, United States - December 5, 2023 /PressCable/ —
With 2023 seeing an increase in moving among younger generations - Gen Z and Millennials - a trend which is expected to continue throughout 2024, Movers.com believes that, with expert advice, it can help home movers relocate more easily. As such, its new guide covers an essential part of any move - packing materials.

In “How Different Types of Packing Materials Help You Move”, the moving specialists explain the three main types of moving supplies: boxes, protective materials, and labeling materials.
Cardboard Boxes
When it’s time to move, boxes will be the first packing material most people purchase. However, Movers.com knows that many home movers - especially younger generations who may be moving for the first time on their own - may not be familiar with the different types of boxes. For example, the movers recommend using purpose-built boxes, such as lamp, kitchen, and file boxes, to better protect and organize their items during relocation.
Protective Materials
While using purpose-built boxes will help protect belongings to a certain extent, Movers.com advises using protective materials, especially when packing fragile items. Bubble wrap can be used for both larger items, like electronics, and smaller fragile belongings such as china and glassware. To protect tables, chairs, and other furniture pieces from scratches, the guide recommends using moving pads and blankets.
Labeling Materials
Lastly, all boxes should be labeled using labels, stickers, or permanent markers, says Movers.com. Aside from labeling the boxes according to content, the guide also recommends marking boxes which contain fragile items. Packing tape should also be used to reinforce the bottom of boxes that contain heavy items, such as books, china, and electronics.
