Protect Fragile Items: Wrap fragile items like glassware, dishes, and electronics in bubble wrap or packing paper. Place them in sturdy boxes with ample cushioning to prevent breakage.

Fill Empty Spaces: Fill any gaps in boxes with clothing, towels, or packing paper to prevent items from shifting during transit. This helps protect your belongings from damage.

Label Clearly: Use a bold marker to label each box with its contents and the room it belongs to. This makes unpacking much easier and more organised.
