Answer by henry (Henry Peterson)
Dawn,
Here are few quick rules for packing china:
- Use dish boxes for your china. They are specifically designed for that kind of load.
- Before packing your dishes, make sure your boxes are prepared. Cushion the bottom, sides and corners of each carton with wadded packing paper, old linens or towels.
- You will need plenty of packing paper for your dishes, glasses and other breakables. Some really delicate or expensive pieces should be wrapped with bubble wrap instead.
- Plates: wrap each plate individually. Stack the wrapped plates in a bundle and re-wrap the bundle with more paper. When packing, never stack dishes flat. Pack dishes, saucers and platters on their edge.
