If you are packing your goods for overseas moving, you can follow these simple cargo packing tips to systemize and secure your possessions for sea shipping. Overseas movers usually assist in packing but if you prefer to do your own packing to save some cash, be guided by these pointers.
1.

Don't overload boxes - The maximum weight for moving boxes is fifty pounds.
2.

Keep items snug - Pack items tightly so they don't shift a lot during transit. Items rubbing and clanking against each other cause damage.
3.

Use thick layers of padding for fragile items - Use as many bubble wrap, crumpled paper and blankets as you can when packing breakables such as glasses, mirrors, dishes and cups.
4.

Keep items together - Pack items that belong to the same room so it will be easier to arrange them when you reach your new home.
5.

Label - Label boxes with their contents and put a brief description to identify essentials from non essentials as well as the boxes with fragile items.
 An international move can be more complex than other types of relocation. You will benefit a lot from hiring an overseas mover who can assist you in every aspect of your move. They can offer to pack, load and arrange cargo containers for you. Some companies may even offer to pick up your goods from the port once you reach your destination. With an overseas mover, you can expect a pleasant moving experience.
