Moving house is always a stressful experience, but when you're relocating internationally, the challenges multiply. It's not just about packing your belongings; it's about ensuring everything arrives safely at your new destination. As a company specializing in removals packaging, Kite has seen its fair share of complex moves, including personal relocations overseas. While most of our business focuses on supplying materials to professional movers, we occasionally get requests from individuals making monumental changes—like packing up their entire home for a fresh start in a faraway land.

Today, I’m diving into a case involving a couple planning to ship their entire household across the ocean to the Caribbean. Air freight poses unique challenges, especially when transporting fragile or sentimental items. Let me walk you through the advice I gave to help them prepare for this exciting yet daunting journey.

Dear Doctor,

My fiancé and I recently tied the knot, and we’ve decided to embrace a brand-new chapter by moving to Jamaica. We’re thrilled about starting our married life together in such a beautiful place, but the logistics of packing up our entire house into a 20-foot shipping container feel overwhelming. We need something cost-effective and practical, particularly since some of our possessions hold deep sentimental value. Can you guide us?

Thank you,
Julie

Hello Julie,

First off, congratulations on your marriage and your adventurous spirit! Relocating internationally is a big step, but with the right approach, you can make it smoother and safer. Here’s how I’d suggest you tackle this challenge:

Start with the basics—your boxes. For lighter items, our single-wall boxes should suffice, while heavier objects like furniture or appliances require the added protection of double-wall boxes. These come with two layers of corrugated cardboard, providing extra strength during transit.

To safeguard your clothes, I recommend our large polyethylene bags. They’re durable, moisture-resistant, and available in various sizes. For delicate fabrics, go for light-duty bags, but if you’re dealing with bulkier items like sweaters or jeans, opt for medium-duty instead. Always toss in a few silica gel packets to absorb any residual moisture—it’s crucial for preventing mold or mildew, especially when crossing climates. A good rule of thumb is to use 5 grams of silica gel per cubic foot of space.

When it comes to furniture, protect your pieces from scratches and impacts with our single-faced corrugated rolls. Their textured surface cushions and stabilizes furniture during transport. Once everything is wrapped, secure all boxes tightly with our acrylic polypropylene tape. This type stays flexible in hot conditions, which is perfect for tropical climates like Jamaica.

Finally, consider palletizing your shipment. Lightweight presswood pallets paired with black stretch wrap create a secure and tamper-proof arrangement. This method keeps your belongings organized and prevents damage during loading and unloading.

I hope this helps you prepare for your big move. Remember, careful planning makes all the difference!

Best wishes,
The Packaging Doctor
