What To Consider When Packing Boxes

When packing your items for Merton self storage, it's important to consider the best techniques to ensure everything is kept safe and secure. Storage Merton understands that you need quality packaging solutions when storing items away, so here are a few tips to bear in mind when setting out on your packing journey:

Firstly, when packing boxes use professional grade containers such as corrugated cartons or plastic bins. Re-used boxes may seem like a cost-effective solution but can be weak and can easily collapse under weight. Corrugated boxes are much stronger and offer better protection against strong impacts and provide robust protection during transit. The strength of corrugated boxes is measured by the Bursting Test (B.T), which looks at how many Kilograms per Square Meter a box can withstand before bursting. This means you can select from a range of container sizes with different B.T ratings to suit your needs.

It's also advised to fill any empty space in the box with packing material such as bubble wrap or foam chips to prevent items moving around or tipping over during transit or storage. For further added protection you can cover the contents of the box with a sheet of mattress foam or even styrofoam and then seal it up for added peace of mind.
