Alpha Moving & Storage Long Distance Packing Tips
It is no secret that long distance moving is complex, involves several stages, and may take many days to complete. In order for a long distance move to be successful, proper packing needs to be done. Most professional movers will recommend full packing for your long distance move. Let’s take a look at some packing solutions and recommendations for your upcoming long distance move.
Advantages of Full Packing Provided by Your Moving Company
Because long distance moving involves the transportation of the goods to another state and sometimes even storage, it is extremely important that all the goods will be well protected. Full packing allows maximum protection for your valuables.
All your glass items and breakables are wrapped with bubble wrap and then placed in specially designed boxes. All sofas, tables and non-breakables are wrapped with blankets and are then taped on the blanket side. There are several types of specially designed boxes, such as book boxes, wardrobe boxes, linen boxes and so forth.
Partial Packing and Box Delivery
You can also do some of the packing by yourself. In such cases, it is recommended to order boxes from your relocation company and have them delivered in advance. Alpha Moving and Storage can provide you with all the packing materials that you may need and deliver them to your doorstep, including boxes, bubble wrap and tapes. If you choose the box delivery option, remember to order your boxes enough time in advance. This way you will allow yourselves enough time to comfortably perform all the necessary packing.

My husband and I have used Alpha for two moves—once from Manhattan to Jersey City and more recently from Jersey City to the Jersey Shore.
The first move … More was during Covid, but Alpha was super diligent and professional. The second move was on an incredibly hot and humid day, and our movers still worked so hard and fast.
For our second move, we also had to put our items in storage for a few weeks. Alpha made this super easy and had a thorough system for taking inventory of all our furniture and boxes.
I can't say enough about how great Alpha is. We would use them again and recommend them to anyone. Their office employees are very responsive and helpful, and the movers are extremely skilled and professional.
I've also found their prices to be much more reasonable than other companies in the area.
