Packing ideas for small home appliances

• Silverware- If you have many silverware items then it might be a problem for you to sort them out at the time of packing.

You can then tie together each type of silverware with a rubber band and then place them all in a cardboard box. You can make use of shoeboxes for this purpose.
• Pots & pans- Packing pots and pans can be difficult if you do not have the right size of the box. To find the right box size, what you can do is to place the largest size of pan diagonally and horizontally in the box. If it fits well and the lid is placed right then the box is just perfect for your pans. You can then place all the other smaller pans on it. When it comes to the lids, you will have to wrap them with a plastic sheet first and then place them in the same box or take another box to keep them safely. Since the lids have a glass, you need to put them very carefully.
• Dinnerware-Dinnerware contains the maximum of breakable plates that are to be kept very sensibly. Here, what you should do is keeping a paper plate between two glass plates to avoid the collision during transit. If you do not have paper plates then plastic sheet or a packing paper will also work. Bubble wraps are also considered to be the best material for packing the paper plates while you may use crop tops and T-shirts to wrap the coffee mugs and other wine glasses.
• Hair dryer- Hair dryer is one of those electrical home appliance that needs to be packed in a very tidy manner. Do not place the dryer with your other cosmetics especially with the combs. If your comb has any hair stuck in its teeth then it might get entangled in your hair dryer also. It is better to wrap the dryer in any of your T-shirts, pillow cover or any other cotton fabric. Avoid using a towel for this purpose, as the fur of towel is likely to get into the holes of the dryer.
