The Importance of Labeling for Storage and Moving in Atlanta

Published: June 01, 2022

Moving is without a doubt one of the most difficult experiences a person will ever face. Moving is stressful enough as it is; there’s no need to make it more difficult. When your things are put away into storage, it may seem chaotic, but this isn’t the case at all.

UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Atlanta is here to assist! Here are three reasons why it’s so important to label your boxes.

It Helps Protect Your Belongings

Adding a single word to your packing list might aid in the safe transport of everything in your boxes to your new home. “Fragile” is an excellent term for anything that may be effortlessly damaged or burst.

Make your box noticeable by using block lettering on it so that everyone who sees it understands what’s in there. When packing ceramic or glass objects or any collectibles in boxes, use “delicate”.

Unloading is Seamless

Consider how much stuff you’ll have before starting to pack, and don’t try to pack everything at once. Also, bear in mind that you won’t be able to unpack everything all at once, so plan ahead of time.

Always include the area in which the box will be placed while labeling a box. If you have a box of children’s books that needs to go in the playroom, refer to it as such.

Makes Unpacking Easier

Labeling also makes it simple to unpack and set up. It may be overwhelming to move into a new house with all of your belongings still in boxes. Labeling your boxes can help you locate whatever you’re looking for if you need it right away. So always remember to write a general list on the box of what contents are inside.
