Why packing time is worth booking separately

A house full of decades of belongings — common in older Summit Avenue and Cathedral Hill homes with attics and built-in storage — can take a packing crew far less time than it would take doing it solo evenings before the move.

Kitchens, closets, and attics are usually the slowest rooms; a crew experienced at packing these efficiently is often the reason this service pays for itself in loading-day time saved.

Materials vary by company

Some companies bring boxes, tape, and paper as part of the booking; others expect you to supply them. Confirm this before the crew arrives so there's no delay at the start.

If you're supplying your own materials, having enough boxes and tape on hand for the estimated volume keeps the crew working instead of waiting.

What to leave unpacked

Anything you need in the days between packing and loading — daily essentials, chargers, medications — is worth setting aside and telling the crew to skip.

Fragile or high-value items you'd rather pack yourself can simply be pointed out at the start.
