Packing and moving?

In every quote White Glove, an industry leader in moving household goods for the past 30 years, includes the price for the packing of all furniture, large pictures and mirrors, floor and table lamps, appliances and large electronics like flat screens televisions. A professional mover should always prepare these items because they require experience and specialty packing materials for safe transportation.

White Glove divides the packing of your homes contents into moving cartons into two (2) distinct categories, breakable items and non-breakable items. When speaking about breakable items we are referring to all items which prior to placement into moving cartons must be individually prepared with specialty packing materials. Specialty packing materials such as tissue paper, brown multi layered paper, bubble wrap, molded Styrofoam or custom wood are available to secure every possible household item. Breakable items include China and Dishes, Glassware, Ornamental Statues, Collectables, etc… For best results, we strongly suggested that a professional mover prepares these items. Non-breakable items are all of your items that do not require any preparation prior to placement into the moving carton. These items include your linens, books, clothing, bathroom supplies, garage contents, basement contents, shed contents, attic contents, etc… White Glove can perform placement of non-breakable items into cartons, the homeowner can perform this himself, or herself, it really just depends on the amount of time available prior to move day and the amount of items. For planning purposes, packing 6-10 cartons per day is typical for a homeowner. At White Glove, the customer determines their comfort level for packing and the amount of involvement they would like to have and we take care of the rest.
