Packing fragile figurines, sports memorabilia, and irreplaceable antiques may be difficult. To minimize the risk of damage, pack them carefully every time. It’s tough to replace things like this.
If you’re planning a move soon, there’s no need to fret, UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Las Vegas is here to offer the best tips for packing collectibles!
Action figures need to be packaged very carefully. It’s more practical to keep the container rather than just for looks’ sake. These things come in a box that is also useful for transporting and moving them about. So, if you still have the box, repack the figurine and any comparable goods before placing it into a container.
Place your valuables in their own boxes rather than among other household items. If action figures or vinyl records are kept in their own container, they will be safer and more secure.
If you enjoy wine, you’ll want to order wine shipping boxes for your move; they’re available on Amazon. Did you know that an 80-record moving container can hold the average collection? Customized vinyl containers are also available and are the ideal size for transporting your prized collection.
Wrap anything delicate, such as china or glassware securely. However, wrapping your valuables in newspaper may damage them. If even a little amount of moisture or pressure is applied to the surface, the ink on the newspaper will spread quickly.
That’s why you should opt for acid-free packing paper when you’re wrapping your collectibles. Wrapping up your collectible items is of the utmost priority when ensuring that everything survives the transporting process, but you have to be careful about what you choose to wrap certain items in.
