How to Pack a Large Mirror to Move

At the very least, one mirror large is in every home, and often more than one. There's one within the bedrooms (of course) and one located in the hallway (corridor) near the entrance or an additional mirror in the living room or in the spare bedroom.

Mirrors play a significant function in our lives, and without doubt, are utilized all the time. This is precisely why when you are moving from one place to another, most people prefer to bring mirrors along and especially when the mirrors have sentimental value of any kind.

Determine how much you'd like to keep the mirror.

The first step in packing a mirror before moving is to determine if it's worth the effort and time to move and pack the item from the house to the new residence. Large mirrors can take up place in the truck, and it's crucial to determine whether it's necessary to move the mirror first.

• Are your large-scale mirrors in good shape, free of any cracks, scratches, or marks on the reflective surface?
• Are you aware for certain that there won't be a large mirror in the new building?
• Is it a top-quality piece, which would be an absolute shame to let go?
• Does it possess any sentimental value to you or someone in your family?

If the mirror in question isn't damaged in some way, then you must be sure to pack it and take it along with you. Why should you purchase a brand new mirror following the move when you already have one in good condition?

Find the appropriate mirror packing materials.

Next step: to collect the materials that you'll require for packing to secure your mirror's safety during transport. Be aware that the correct steps to pack will ensure that the mirror is delivered intact, which means you'll require the proper packing materials before moving on to the actual packing stage for your mirror.

The components needed to pack a mirror of a large size include:

• A mirror box. It is necessary to purchase special mirror boxes for every mirror you're traveling with. Learn more about the reasons why a mirror box is the best option for transporting something as delicate as mirrors between two houses.
• Kraft paper. It's a kind of wrapping paper that is thicker and more durable than soft, white packing paper. Kraft paper is generally brown and can protect the extremely fragile glass item.
• Cardboard. You'll need a huge piece of cardboard to shield the reflective mirror's surface.
• Bubble wrap. Bubble wrap can create an excellent layer of protection above the paper wrapping.
• Painter's tape. Also known as masking tape, you'll require this kind of tape to shield the breakable glass area of the mirror.
• Packing tape. A roll of the standard packing tape should work perfectly.
• Permanent marker. To label the mirror box after you've put it in.
