About kitchen and fragile packing
Should I pack my own dishes?
You can, and we are happy to check your boxes. Many people prefer to hand the kitchen to a packer because it is the longest room to wrap.

Yes. We pack the contents and carry the cabinet padded, with glass protected.
Do you pack open food?
No. Use up or give away open food and perishables, and we pack sealed pantry items.
