Tips for Packing: The Right Stuff

Allied has a wide range of boxes and professional packing materials available for purchase to help you organize and safeguard your belongings, including:

  • Dishpack (or China Barrel): Heavy duty carton used for dishes/china, crystal and glassware
  • Double-wall cartons: Extra protective cartons made especially for fine china, crystal, and other high-value, hard to replace items
  • 1.5 cu. ft. cartons: Small carton for heavy items such as books, files, music CDs and DVDs/video tapes
  • 3.0 cu. ft. cartons: Medium utility carton often used for pots and pans, toys, and small appliances
  • 4.5 cu. ft. cartons: For bulky items, such as linens, towels or toys
  • 6.0 cu. ft. cartons: For large, bulky, or lightweight articles, such as pillows or large lampshades
  • Wardrobe cartons: A "portable closet" that keeps clothes or draperies hanging on a built-in bar
  • Mirror cartons: Several sizes of telescoping cartons for framed pictures, mirrors or glass
  • Mattress cartons: Available in queen/king, double, single (twin) and crib sizes. A separate carton is necessary for box springs
  • Stretchwrap: A special plastic covering that safely adheres to furniture and protects it from snags, tears, and dirt

Use newspaper only for cushioning-never place newspaper aginst items as the ink will rub off. It can get embedded in fine china, so be wary!
