The packing is probably the most important step in logistics
If the price of your move seems too expensive, or if you simply want to save money for your on-site installation, we’ve thought of everything. Indeed, we have thought of a special service, where your involvement in the loading and / or packaging of your goods can lighten your bill.
To pack your belongings, it is recommended to start as soon as possible. It is best to start with the least useful, which you may not be able to use before your departure (clothes out of season, craft materials, etc.)
You also need to be organized. Be methodical when packing together goods belonging to the same family (clothes with clothes, dishes with dishes) to make it easier for you. Consider writing on each box a number, content, destination address, and especially your name.
It is strongly advised to pack your fragile objects carefully, especially with bubble wrap. Glassware and dishes can travel safely. Also remember to close the cartons with scotch tape, and indicate on it the mention “Fragile” as well as the top and bottom. If you have stored them, it is recommended to use the original packaging of your products.
To save even more money, you can also load the container or truck yourself. The container is used for volumes above 15m3.
For the latter, we offer you two possibilities:
- The truck equipped with a crane to place the container on the ground to make its loading easier. It is especially recommended for bulky goods and if you do not have any material handling equipment.
- The standard truck, where the container will be at 1.5m from the ground. It is more economical if you have material handling equipment.
Be logical in your cargo: begin with your furniture and appliances, glued to the walls of the container with one of the straps. Stack your boxes from the heaviest to the lightest to avoid damaging them.
We modify our packing services according to the nature of the goods being transported. At Siam Relocation, we provide a wide range of services that include packaging:
- Single packing cartons
- Cartons with straps
- Packed cartons
- Wooden pallet
- Wooden box
- Bubble packaging

Tip 2: Look at the weather, and avoid a rainy day for loading. If it rains on the day of loading no panic:
Divide the roles:
