Whether you’re preparing for a move, renovation, or just need extra space, packing a portable storage cube efficiently can save you time, money, and stress. In this guide, we’ll walk you through a practical, step-by-step approach to help you make the most of your MobileCube.
Step-by-Step Guide to Efficient Packing
- Start with a Plan: Before lifting a single box, take inventory of what you’re storing. Group items by size, fragility, and frequency of use.
- Distribute Weight Evenly: Place heavier items on the bottom and toward the center of the cube to prevent tipping and protect lighter items.
- Use Moving Blankets & Wraps: Secure furniture and fragile items with protective materials to minimize damage during transit.
- Disassemble Large Furniture: Beds, tables, and shelves take up less space when broken down and packed flat.
- Maximize Vertical Space: Stack strategically using uniform boxes. Fill gaps with soft items like linens, pillows, or clothing bags.
- Label Clearly: Make future unloading easier by labeling boxes by room and contents.
