that you can list on your boxes to make the move faster and easier this will definitely help in the process and will take no time to do you should always get boxes that are a little bit thicker never get boxes that are really thin this is not going to help anything inside this box and the contents you keep in it you will want to make it thick enough and protect it enough in case it gets bumped

same process as with with clothes vacuum seal it take all the air out as much as it can put them into your box tightly in pack make sure everything fits nicely you close your lids and obviously put tape over the box to make sure it stays all intact make sure your tape is well put on you don't want anything coming out of it then you mark the color on the sides of the box that correspond to where it's going to get dropped off at the location and the number just so you know how many boxes you have in your location in your house always make sure you put on the sides putting at the top it's only
