The resource draws on the company's experience serving local and long-distance routes across California, covering dishes, mirrors, electronics, and the materials needed to keep them intact.

Got2Move notes that shifting, impact, and pressure during transport are among the leading causes of damage to fragile items in transit. Wrapping each piece individually and packing it in a sturdy box, rather than relying on loose or makeshift padding, reduces that risk substantially, though the company outlines several additional methods for protecting breakables.
Accordingly, the company's guide identifies key materials that hold up during transport, from dish pack boxes to packing paper, corrugated fiberboard pads, bubble wrap, and packing tape. Got2Move also advises against substituting old towels, sheets, or small linens for these materials, describing them as inadequate cushioning for breakables.
For paintings, mirrors, and wall art, the guide outlines a specific sequence: taping an X across the glass front to hold it together if it cracks, placing a piece of cardboard over the glass, and wrapping the entire piece in bubble wrap. This layered method addresses the particular risk that framed glass poses during a move, reducing the likelihood of cracks spreading across the surface.
Glassware and stemware call for similar layered attention, the guide adds. Got2Move recommends wrapping each glass item individually and using a box with cardboard dividers to keep pieces separated and stable during transport. Filling any remaining space with crumpled paper helps prevent items from shifting in transit.
For homeowners tackling a move on their own, Got2Move explains that these steps translate into a practical checklist: gather the right packing materials, wrap methodically, and eliminate space in every box.
While sturdy boxes and correct labeling help ensure fragile items arrive in the right room and receive careful handling, Got2Move notes that its professional crews can manage the full packing stage for customers who prefer not to handle it themselves.
