How to Safely Pack Dishes<\/h2>\n

Here is a list of steps to safely and efficiently pack dishware. These steps should be used for all saucers, bread and butter dishes, and other dishware. When packing smaller dishes, you may choose to stack in greater quantity.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Choose a medium-sized moving box or dishpack and line the bottom of the carton with crumpled packing paper to provide some padding underneath.<\/li>\n
  2. With packing paper stacked neatly in place on a work table, center one plate on the paper.<\/li>\n
  3. Grasp a corner on several sheets of packing paper and pull the paper over the plate until sheets completely cover the plate. Stack a second plate on and, moving clockwise, grasp a second corner and pull sheets over the second plate.<\/li>\n
  4. Stack a third plate. Grasp remaining two corners, folding two sheets of each corner (one at a time) over the plate.<\/li>\n
  5. Turn your wrapped stack of plates upside down onto your packing paper.<\/li>\n
  6. Re-wrap the entire bundle: start with one corner of packing paper and pull two sheets over the bundle, cover bundle with next corner, then the third corner; and finally, the fourth.<\/li>\n
  7. Seal the bundle with packing tape.<\/li>\n
  8. Place the bundle of dish-ware in a medium-size box so that the plates are standing on edge<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    How to Pack Glasses and Stemware<\/h2>\n
      \n
    • Stuff glasses and stemware with crumpled tissue or packing paper before wrapping.<\/li>\n
    • Lay on the corner of packing paper and roll it one or two full rotations (depending on size); pull sides of packing paper up and over glass\/stemware and continue rolling to the far corner. Corrugated paper rolls or cellular boxes may be used for added protection.<\/li>\n
    • Place glasses and stemware toward the top of your box. Heavier items (dish-ware, pitchers,etc.) should be placed toward the bottom of the box. Delicate glassware and stemware should be placed in an upright position, not on its side.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      No matter what you\u2019re packing, you should use crumpled packing paper in between each layer to assure a snug fit wherever there\u2019s a gap. All boxes with \u201cfragile\u201d items should be marked accordingly.<\/p>\n

      <\/div>\n
      \n

      How to Pack Cups<\/h2>\n
        \n
      • With packing paper in place on the work table, position one cup six to eight inches from one of the corners.<\/li>\n
      • Now pull the near corner of the paper up and over the cup.<\/li>\n
      • Nest a second cup directly on top, with handle to left (second cup should \u201cnest\u201d itself in packing paper folded over the bottom cups).<\/li>\n
      • Pull the two side corners up and over, one at a time, and tuck corners inside the top cup.<\/li>\n
      • Hold the bottom and top cup in position and roll cups to the remaining corner. Fragile mixing bowls may be rolled in the same manner.<\/li>\n
      • Delicate cups, like china, should be wrapped one at a time. Antique glass or china should be stuffed with crumpled tissue and wrapped one at a time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
