A Storage Place

Pack as much as you can in uniform size boxes. Fill them tightly, but take care neither to overpack nor underpack. Bulging cartons tip when stacked, while half-full cartons tend to collapse. Use wadded-up newsprint, bubble-wrap, rags, towels, or blankets to fill-in empty spaces. For maximum protection, seal cartons with tape. Pack heavy items, such as books and tools in tiny boxes. For easier handling limit the weight of all cartons (regardless of size) to 30 lbs. Or less.
