- Do not overload the boxes. Keep their weight very reasonable.
- Make one "open first box" packing where you will keep all the handy things like soap, scissors, pencils, pens, glue, tape, bath towel for your family. While packing this box think of all the handy things that are required. Keep these things as accessible as possible and also keep this packing box close to you.
