HELPFUL PACKING TIPS
* Dispose of old or unwanted items prior to move in to help save space.
*Store sofas on an end to maximize space.
*Disassemble weak or heavy pieces of furniture to allow more storage space.
*Clean refrigerators and freezers, drain water supply lines, vacuum coils and fill with other kitchen items; store with doors slightly ajar.

*Be sure to leave a space between the walls and your items to allow ventilation.
*Take proper precautions to protect furniture with mattress covers, poly blankets or sheets for coverings.
