Whether you are moving, shipping, storing, or just need something properly protected, our trained packers wrap and box your belongings with the care they deserve.
Professional Packing for Moves, Storage, Shipping, and More
Not everyone who needs professional packing is moving house. You might be shipping a piece of artwork to a buyer across the country. You might be putting furniture into long-term storage and want it properly wrapped so it comes out in the same condition it went in. You might be renovating and need your belongings boxed and protected while work happens around them. Or yes, you might be moving — and you want the packing done right so nothing breaks in transit.
Moving Co.’s wrapping and packaging service covers all of these situations. Our packers are trained in material-specific techniques — we know how to wrap crystal differently from ceramics, how to protect oil paintings differently from framed photographs, and how to box electronics so they survive bumps and vibrations whether they are going on a truck, into a storage unit, or onto a shipping pallet.
You can book our packing service for an entire home, for specific rooms or categories (like the kitchen or artwork), for individual high-value items, or for non-moving purposes like storage preparation and shipping. We supply all materials — boxes, tape, bubble wrap, packing paper, stretch film, and specialty containers — so you do not have to shop for supplies.
What Our Packing Service Covers
Full-Home Packing
We pack every room in your home from top to bottom — closets, cabinets, shelves, drawers, and storage areas. Everything gets boxed, labelled, and organized for efficient loading and unpacking. A full-home pack for a typical three-bedroom house usually takes a team of two to three packers about four to six hours.
Kitchen and Fragile Items
The kitchen is the most packing-intensive room in most homes. We individually wrap dishes, glasses, mugs, and bowls in packing paper, use cell dividers for stemware, and cushion appliances. Every box is labelled fragile and loaded accordingly.
Artwork, Mirrors, and Framed Items
We use corner protectors, bubble wrap, and custom-cut cardboard to build protective enclosures for framed art, mirrors, glass tabletops, and decorative pieces. Large or valuable pieces get specialty wrapping and are flagged for careful truck positioning.
Electronics
Televisions, monitors, computers, gaming consoles, sound systems, and home theatre equipment get proper wrapping, box padding, and — when available — original manufacturer packaging. We photograph cable connections before disconnecting so setup at your new home is straightforward.
Clothing and Wardrobe Packing
We use wardrobe boxes that allow your clothing to hang during transport, avoiding wrinkles and folding. For delicate garments, furs, or formal wear, we add tissue paper and garment bags.
Furniture Wrapping
Every piece of furniture gets moving blankets, stretch wrap, or both before it goes on the truck. Leather surfaces get padded protection. Wood surfaces are covered to prevent scratches. Glass components are wrapped separately.
Why Professional Packing Is Worth It — Even If You Are Not Moving
Most people associate packing services with moving day, but professional wrapping and packaging is valuable in plenty of other situations.
Putting items into storage? Furniture and belongings that sit in a storage unit for months or years need proper protection from dust, moisture, and pressure damage. We wrap furniture in moving blankets and stretch film, box fragile items with cushioning, and organize everything so it stacks safely and stays protected for the long term.
Shipping something valuable? A piece of art, an antique, or a fragile item being sent to a buyer or family member needs packing that can survive courier handling. We build custom box-in-box packaging, apply corner protectors, and use dense cushioning materials designed for shipping conditions.
Renovating your home? If you are living through a renovation, your furniture and belongings need to be covered, boxed, or relocated within the house. We pack and protect items room by room and help you set up temporary arrangements while the work happens.
And for moves, professional packing remains the single best investment you can make. Poorly packed items are the most common cause of moving damage — not rough handling on the truck, but boxes that were packed wrong before anything got loaded. Our packers eliminate that risk.
Common Packing Scenarios
- Full-home packing the day before or morning of a move
- Kitchen-only packing for people who handle everything else but want the fragile stuff done right
- Packing items for long-term storage — furniture wrapping, boxing, and organizing
- Crating and wrapping artwork, antiques, or collectibles for shipping or transport
- Packing a home office — monitors, hard drives, files, and sensitive equipment
- Protecting furniture and belongings during a home renovation
- Preparing fragile or high-value items for a long-distance or inter-provincial move
- Partial packing — we handle the tricky stuff, you handle the easy boxes
- Unpacking at the destination — we unbox, place items, and remove all packing materials
- Wrapping and preparing furniture for seasonal storage (cottages, vacation properties)
Tips for Packing and Wrapping
- If packing yourself, use small boxes for heavy items (books, dishes) and large boxes for light, bulky items (pillows, linens). An overpacked heavy box is a back injury waiting to happen.
- Never use newspaper for wrapping — the ink transfers to dishes, fabric, and surfaces. Use clean packing paper or bubble wrap.
- Label every box on the top and at least one side with the destination and a brief contents description. This applies whether you are moving, shipping, or storing.
- For items going into long-term storage, avoid plastic bags directly against fabric or leather — they trap moisture. Use breathable covers or moving blankets.
- If you are handling some packing yourself, leave fragile, awkward, and high-value items for us. That is where professional packing makes the biggest difference.
- For shipping, double-box fragile items — a box within a box with packing material between them provides the best shock absorption.
