Packing Books for Moving

Information on how to pack books for moving in Houston.

You'll need:

1. Tape
2. Small boxes

   TIP: If you've collected lots of books over time, it's a great time to reevaluate what you really want to keep. Consider selling some at a yard sale or to a secondhand bookstore. If you're being moved, more weight in your truck adds to the final price; if you're moving yourself, more weight puts a physical strain on you.

How to pack:

1. Never pack more than 30 pounds of books in a box, unless you're a weight lifter by trade.
2. Fill in small spaces in each box with smaller paperbacks. Alternate bindings every few books to keep stacks level in each box.
3. Tape shut and mark "Books." You're done!
