Why Professional Packing Matters

1. Protection of Valuables
   Professional packers use industry-grade materials—double-wall boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, and specialty crates—to safeguard fragile items like glassware, china, electronics, and artwork. Proper techniques reduce the risk of damage during transport.

2. Efficiency and Speed
   Trained movers can wrap, box, and label belongings more efficiently than most homeowners. A methodical approach ensures your packing is complete in half the time it would take you, allowing you to focus on other moving-related tasks.

3. Organization and Labeling
   Systematic labeling of every box—by room and content—means unpacking becomes quick and straightforward. When every box is clearly marked, movers know exactly where to place it in your new home, cutting down on clutter and confusion.

4. Stress Reduction
   Packing can be physically demanding and mentally taxing. Letting professionals handle it allows you to leave the heavy lifting to trained crews while you attend to essential tasks like updating your address, transferring utilities, and coordinating with schools or employers.

Our Comprehensive Packing Services

1. Full-Service Packing

Our full-service option covers every step:

• Assessment & Planning: We begin with an on-site walkthrough to determine the scale of your move, special-order supplies needed, and any fragile or highly valuable items requiring custom crates.

• Professional Materials: We supply sturdy boxes in multiple sizes, packing paper, bubble wrap, stretch wrap, foam pouches, dish barrels, and specialty crates for oversized or delicate items (e.g., pianos, antiques).

• Room-by-Room Packing: Our crews systematically pack one room at a time—starting with non-essentials (seasonal décor, books, out-of-season clothing) and progressing to daily-use items (dishes, electronics). Each box is securely taped, labeled with contents, and marked by room destination.

• Fragile & Specialty Item Handling: We wrap china, glassware, artwork, mirrors, and electronics with extra padding. For oddly shaped or especially valuable pieces, we use custom-built crates or reinforced boxes.

• Furniture Protection: We wrap sofas, dressers, tables, and other large items in quilted moving blankets and secure them with stretch wrap or shrink wrap to prevent scratches and dents.

• Final Load-Ready Organization: Once everything is packed, each box and piece of furniture is organized in a load-order sequence—heaviest and sturdiest items loaded first, fragile boxes loaded last—ensuring a safe and efficient move.

2. Partial Packing Service

If you prefer to pack some of your belongings yourself (for instance, personal keepsakes or clothing), we can handle the rest. Typical partial-service scenarios include:

• Kitchen & Breakables Only: Let our team expertly wrap and pack dishes, glassware, cookware, and small appliances, while you pack closets and non-breakable items.

• Electronics & Art Packing: We specifically pack computers, televisions, speakers, artwork, and framed photos to ensure proper protection, leaving you to manage linens, clothes, books, and personal items.

• High-Value Item Focus: If you own antique furniture, heirloom china, or collectible glassware, we’ll coordinate special packing solutions while you handle general household goods.

3. Packing Supply Delivery

For those who want to do most of the packing but need quality materials, we deliver:

• Uniform, sturdy moving boxes (small, medium, large, extra-large)

• Dish pack boxes and foam pouches for fragile kitchenware

• Wardrobe boxes with hanging rods for clothes and linens

• Packing paper, bubble wrap, and rolls of stretch wrap

• Packing tape, markers, and labeling stickers
  We’ll drop off supplies on your schedule, and if you need additional boxes during the process, we’ll deliver more at any time.

Our Efficient Unpacking Services

1. Full Unpacking

Once our moving crews have delivered and set up in your new home, our unpacking service helps you settle in quickly:

• Box Placement: We place each box directly into the designated room, per your labeling instructions.

• Box Opening & Debris Removal: Boxes are opened, and items are unwrapped and placed in cabinets, countertops, or on shelving based on your directions.

• Furniture Reassembly: Beds, tables, desks, and shelving units that were disassembled for the move are reassembled and positioned according to your floor plan.

• Kitchen & Bathroom Setup: We unpack dishes, utensils, small appliances, and toiletries. We can even arrange pantry items and place towels, toiletries, and cleaning supplies in your bathroom cabinets and closets.

• Furniture Arrangement: Large furniture pieces—sofas, chairs, dressers—are positioned exactly where you want them. We can adjust spacing, center rugs, and arrange décor elements.

• Final Cleanup: All packing materials, cardboard, tape, and protective coverings are removed and recycled or disposed of, leaving your new home tidy and move-in ready.

2. Partial Unpacking

Need help with only certain rooms while you tackle the rest? Our partial unpacking service is ideal if:

• You want us to unpack the kitchen and bathroom so you can prepare meals and have hygiene essentials ready immediately.

• You’d rather have us set up your bedrooms—reassembling beds, placing linens, and organizing clothing—while you unpack common areas.

• You require assistance unpacking fragile items such as glassware and artwork, leaving non-delicate boxes for you to sort later.

Why Best Albuquerque Movers’ Packing & Unpacking Stands Out

1. Highly Trained Packing Teams
   Our crews complete rigorous training in packing techniques, fragile handling, and labeling systems. You can trust they’ll treat every item—no matter how small or valuable—with utmost care.

2. Premium Quality Materials
   We use only commercial-grade, double-wall boxes and premium cushioning materials. Bubble wrap, foam sheets, and reinforced crates keep your belongings secure no matter how far your move travels.

3. Streamlined Process & Clear Communication
   From the initial packing estimate to the final unpacking walkthrough, you’ll have a dedicated pack coordinator who provides clear timelines, answers questions, and ensures you know exactly what to expect at each stage.

4. Customized Packing Plans
   We work with you to identify high-priority items, tricky access points, and any special handling requirements (e.g., pianos, antiques, oversize mirrors). No two homes are alike—our plans are tailored to your household’s unique needs.

5. Transparent, Upfront Pricing
   Whether you choose full, partial, or supplies-only packing, we provide a detailed estimate that outlines all costs. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for—there are no hidden fees.

6. Efficient Unpacking & Debris Removal
   Our unpacking crews not only place items but also handle all debris removal. We’ll break down boxes, collect packing paper, bubble wrap, and tape, and ensure nothing is left behind—so you can enjoy your new home immediately.

The Packing & Unpacking Process: Step by Step

1. Schedule a Free Consultation & Estimate

   • Call us or fill out the online form to arrange an on-site or virtual walkthrough. We’ll assess the quantity and special requirements of your items to provide an accurate quote.

2. Confirm Services & Timeline

   • Review and approve the detailed estimate. Select your preferred packing date(s) and moving date. We coordinate with you to ensure minimal disruption to your schedule.

3. Pre-Packing Preparation (for Full/Partial Service)

   • Our team arrives with all necessary materials. We protect flooring and hallways with runners, lay corner guards, and use protective coverings to prevent scuffs and scratches in your home.

4. Packing Day

   • Room by room, we securely pack all belongings according to their fragility and weight. Electronics are wrapped in anti-static packaging. Furniture is padded and shrink-wrapped. Each box is labeled by room and contents.

5. Loading & Transportation

   • Packed boxes and protected furniture are loaded into our trucks in a carefully planned sequence to prevent shifting during transit. If you’re also using our moving services, we coordinate the timeline so unloading begins promptly upon arrival.

6. Unpacking Day (Optional)

   • Once your items arrive, our unpacking crew places each box in its designated room. We unpack and arrange contents as directed—unwrapping dishes, setting up beds, placing toiletries in medicine cabinets, and disposing of all packing materials.

7. Final Walkthrough & Debris Removal

   • We perform a final review with you to confirm all items are in place and undamaged. All empty boxes, packing paper, and bubble wrap are removed and recycled. Your new home is left clean and organized.

Packing & Unpacking Tips for a Smoother Move

• Declutter Before Packing
  Donate, recycle, or sell items you no longer need at least two weeks before packing begins. Reducing the volume of items saves time and money.

• Keep Important Documents Close
  Pack personal documents—passports, birth certificates, financial records—in a separate labeled box or tote that stays with you, not on the moving truck.

• Label Boxes Clearly
  Even if you’re not using our packing service, label every box with the room name and a brief description of contents. A simple color-coding system can help identify priority boxes (e.g., “green” for kitchen, “blue” for bedroom).

• Pack an Essentials Kit
  Include toiletries, medications, a change of clothes, chargers, and important pet supplies in a single box or bag. Keep this kit accessible so you don’t have to dig through multiple boxes on your first night.

• Disassemble Large Furniture Early
  Remove couch legs, break down bed frames, and disassemble shelving units before our crews arrive. Clearly bag and label all hardware for quick reassembly.

• Notify Utility Providers & Update Address
  Schedule disconnection at your current home and connection at your new address at least a week before moving. Change your address with USPS, banks, and subscription services to avoid last-minute surprises.
