Packing Services in Brighouse

Wrapping glass, screens and stone-house kitchens before a Brighouse move

In an open-plan mill apartment by the canal, screens, mirrors and glass on open shelves need the most care. Screens are wrapped in bubble wrap and blankets and travel upright, mirrors and pictures go into flat cartons marked fragile, and glasses are wrapped one at a time. Boxes are kept to a size that stacks well in a lift and on a trolley along a corridor, and the fragile ones are loaded last so they come off first.

The larger stone houses in Lightcliffe and Hipperholme bring more rooms, fuller kitchens and garages that fill up gradually. The kitchen is packed last, with one box left open for the kettle and mugs. Heavy things like books go in small boxes so each one can be carried safely up a stone stair or along a drive. Tell us what is in the loft and garage when you ask for a price, because those are usually the parts that take longest.

How a Brighouse packing day is organised

• Materials are included in the packing price, including wardrobe boxes for hanging clothes
• Rooms you use least are packed first, the kitchen last
• In a canal basin apartment, boxes are kept small enough for the lift and stacked by the door, ready for the van
• In a Lightcliffe or Hipperholme house, say what is in the garage and loft at the quote, because they take longest
• Anything not coming needs sorting before packing day, because nothing unwanted leaves in the van
