Jewelry
If you have any jewelry, you need to ensure that you have listed all of them down and check whether you still have the original package. If you might have lost the actual container, you may opt to buy little jewelry boxes to keep them in individually before boxing them. You may also decide to wrap the jewelry in soft wrapping paper before boxing them to avoid damage to the jewelry. Pack And Ship Movers has the best solution for ensuring you get your jewelry safely to your new location.
Financial, Records And Legal Documents
When Packing Valuables during your move, ensure that you have separately gone through all the legal documents that you have and that you need. If you do not need to keep an original, you may opt to scan the documents and upload them to a drive; this will reduce the number of boxes you need to ferry when you are on the move. All records and deeds for the new house need to be close to you if needed when moving into the new place. If some of the legal documents are with your lawyer, you have the option of leaving the documents with the lawyer if you are not planning to change law firms. But in a scenario where you want to shift law firms, you may ask them to transfer them to your next lawyer.
Electronics
When you are packing your electronics, you need to take great care to ensure that they reach their destinations without any damages to be on the safer side Pack And Ship Movers has guides that you need to adhere to, and here they are;
- Ensure that you have the original product manual that will help you to disassemble and assemble the electronics without damaging it.
- You are to ensure that you have the original boxes you bought the electronics in; if you do not have, you can opt to go to an electronic repair shop and inquire if they may have an old one.

When you are packing, the electric cords ensure that you have rolled the up and taped them to avoid dangling cables.
