Packing for a move is stressful, there’s no doubt about it. At some point in the process – possibly on multiple occasions – you’ll ask yourself how you came to accumulate so much
stuff.
We don’t learn how to pack at school, so most of the time we go along with what makes sense: pack your books in one box, your TV stuff in another and your towels separately, too. But that’s not always the best route to take.
So, we asked professional packers – yes, there are people who will actually come and do this stuff for you – for their top tips when it comes to squirrelling everything away for a house move. Here’s what they said.

A 50-piece snow globe collection and a full-size plastic cow are among the weird and wonderful items removals firms have packed up and relocated.
While it’s not unusual for firms to pack people’s undies, painstakingly wrap glassware and box up bathroom essentials during a typical house move, we wanted to know the most unusual items they’ve ever come across.
Wayne Winfield, who’s been a professional mover at McCarthy’s Removals in Leeds for 24 years, has packed up plenty of people’s homes – including premiership footballers and TV and sports personalities.
Some of the more unusual items he’s moved include a genuine ejector seat from a second world war Phantom fighter jet, a full-size plastic cow, a brass statue of a client’s daughter in tutu in full ballet pose, and a resin effigy of the king himself, Elvis Presley – life-size, of course.
