Today we will be talking about moving antique, fragile, and sensitive items but it will be a Toronto edition since there are many migrations from the States to Canada and vice versa. Relocating breakable items is never easy. Moving them from one country to another can be quite a risk but don’t worry we are here to help you. We will share how you can prep your breakables and who can help you to keep them safe during the relocation. Even though Canada and the USA are quite close countries that can still be a journey (depending on the state you moving in or out of) so let’s start with preparations.
Planning ahead and preparing your sensitive items
The only way to make sure that your fragile items stay safe during your upcoming relocation is to plan ahead and prepare yourself and those breakables. Also having insurance can be a smart move especially if those items are valuable. That way at least your costs will be covered and if nothing bad happens well, you had your mind at ease.
Before you start with packing first you need to figure out the most sensitive detail of your breakable object and find a way to extra secure it. And, before all of that make sure that you clean everything. There is no need to pack dusty items, you don’t want that in your new place so take a few minutes and clean them. The next step will be packing of course.
Packing supplies
For this part, you will be needing some good quality packing supplies. You shouldn’t save money on packing supplies since they are the ones that will protect all your sensitive items. So, maybe even do some research before buying. Bubble wrap is always a popular choice for protecting fragile items and movers often use it. If they are using it, it must mean that it’s a good solution. Also, make sure to get good-quality moving boxes and box dividers. Sometimes even small things can make a difference.
Packing materials are a very important factor since they are keeping all your breakable items safe during the road that’s ahead of you.
Eco-friendly ways of doing the same
Some people care about the environment more and don’t want to use good packing supplies like bubble wrap and moving boxes. That is ok, even admirable since you are looking out for our planet. There are ways to secure your fragile household belongings by recycling. For example, you can use your t-shirts to wrap up your glasses and vases. Towels and bedding can be good for electronics. Instead of buying a cardboard moving box, you can rent plastic bins that are recyclable, and that way you are not wasting anything. For this project you just need to be a bit creative or should we say – think outside the box?
Eco-friendly strategies when conducting a move are always an option.

Moving day – Toronto edition
Moving day is the most hectic day of all. All the planning and all the work lead to this day.

Do whatever you need to feel better and don’t worry this is just for a day, soon enough you will be in your new home and all your sensitive items will be there with you.
Unpacking
Once movers bring your breakables let them know where to put them and then you need to carefully unpack them. In fact, you should unpack all your belongings right away because that way you will be able to settle in your new home. You can’t do anything if there are unpacked moving boxes lying around everywhere you take a look. Movers can also help with unpacking and settling on. This is one of those additional services we talked about. Good luck with your upcoming relocation Toronto edition and hopefully all your fragile and sensitive items will stay safe and sound during the long road that’s ahead of you. We strongly advise that you hire professionals in your case since they are the ones with equipment for such a task.
