  1. Garbage bags as a means for transporting clothing - The concept may stand as absurd but once you do it, you will fall in love with the new method! Instead of risking the folding of all your clothes in boxes, and thus crumpling them, you should instead use large rubbish bags which can be utilized as protective covers. All you do is cut a hole on the bottom of the bag, and push through one or more hangers. You can then hang your clothes in the back of a truck or a transport cupboard.

  2. Worry no more about ironing once you unpack! Isn’t that phenomenal? - Bath towels as a means to store and pack your plates during the move: Instead of buying bubble wraps, bath towels can be smarter way of storing you heated in them. There is no better method to mask the dishes while providing them with protection against jerks and hits. At box time, roll up each thing and stuff it into a box. If needed, cut cardboard into sections to separate items and make the best use of packaging.

  3. Moving glasses is one of the most fragile things. A tip to keep them safe: slip them in socks! You could also use newspapers or bath towels (as explained above).

  4. Plastic bags for packing bottles and tubes: To avoid leaks during the move, pack your bottles, flasks and other tubes in closed plastic bags. The smaller ones can be stuffed inside a zip-locked freezer bag. If you want extra safety, put a piece of clear plastic wrap over the opening before you screw the cap on top.

  5. Moving books inside rolling suitcases: Books are among the heaviest and most complicated objects to transport. You only need to move once to realize this. A solution for transporting your favourite novels and books and making them lighter on your back: use a rolling suitcase!
