Using Foam to Help Pack When Moving

Moving is one of life’s greatest stressors. Between finding a new place, staying on schedule and picking up and leaving a place you’re familiar with, it’s easy to see why. During the moving process many things come up that only add fuel to the fire, and one is packing your possessions.

In our homes and apartments, everything has a place where it belongs. When we move, we have to take everything we own and throw it in a truck or container with everything else. This can be a problem, when things are tossed into boxes and shaken and rattled, with only a few rags or towels as buffers. To make moving easier, investing in custom foam padding protection can keep your valuables safe and your mind at ease.

The familiar eggcrate pattern in foam sheets is one of the best materials for moving, with its economical manufacturing method. It is easily cut to size and absorbs impact well. For guarding larger or heavier furniture like dressers or tables, foam rubber sheets are durable enough to absorb impact and prevent scratching without tearing. After getting to your new home, they can be placed under the feet of tables or couches to serve as a protective furniture cushion if you’re worried about damaging hardwood or tiled floors while moving things around and getting situated in your new place.

If you plan on moving soon, get some practical packing materials ahead of time and give yourself one less thing to worry about.
