Proper Packing

Proper Packing

It's the ounce of prevention we know volumes about.


Poor packing is the most common cause of breakage during a relocation. Transporting fragile, delicate items safely involves a lot more than simply placing them in boxes. You get expert packing from Atlas. We use the right cartons for different items, the right packing materials to cushion and protect the contents, and the right packing methods to assure a safe trip. We even use wooden crates for things like crystal chandeliers, pool table slates and antiques. When you trust your entire relocation to Atlas, you save time you probably can't spare, save worry you don't need, and save costs you didn't expect.

Atlas takes pride in packing your items. Take a few minutes to see how Atlas will handle the following items.

Packing Yourself

If you decide to pack some items yourself, we recommend the same materials that Atlas professionals use: double- and triple-cell constructed cartons, cushioning wraps and packing tape. All are readily available at affordable prices from your Atlas agent. Ask about what you need.

Moving Sale

The easiest way to save money is by not moving things you don't use any more. The whole family can help decide what to give away or sell. Contributions to charities might be tax-deductible, but remember to get a receipt. Or, have a moving sale and turn unwanted items into cash.
