or at least gazing at the bookspines when you just don't have the time. But when it's time to move home, suddenly you're faced with the prospect of getting every single one of those books off the shelves and into boxes. Straight forward, not necessarily. But expert movers are sharing their tricks of the trade to get you off the hook when it comes to boxing up books. Think small. Your first thought might be to get as many books as you can in a single box to speed up the packing process. Wrong. Books are unbelievably heavy, especially in abundance. A box that's overpacked runs the risk of falling apart. Usually while you're heaving it up a staircase or across your yard, you're also putting your back at a severe strain. Unnecessarily. Instead, choose smaller boxes for your books. It may take a little longer to pack everything, but as the saying goes, better safe than sorry. Smaller boxes will house fewer books at one time, equaling less weight, less strain, and more safety. Get a grip. As long as the

contents aren't overly heavy, see tip one. Then it's a good idea to pick sturdy boxes with handles. Handles will prevent you from needing to lift and carry the box from the bottom. A technique that's decidedly less stable and more prone to tipping over with disastrous results. Instead, you can get a decent grip on your box and carry it without major issues. Safe in the knowledge that your books are in safe hands. With easier lifting comes a less stressful, less tiring move. Don't pass that chance up. Be creative. Of course, boxes aren't the only route to a simple move. Make use of anything and everything you have, such as suitcases. The advantages of a modern suitcase are two-fold. One, they'll keep your books safe from adverse weather conditions, safer than a box, in fact. And two, they come with wheels. That makes them ideal to store those ultra-heavy coffee table books, for which smaller boxes just won't do. Load up the case, wheel it along to your moving

truck, minimal lifting, maximum convenience. Why moveers are the right choice? It's the eternal question for those on the move. Do this alone or hire professional help. Yes, opting for a DIY approach will save you money, at least around first. But the experts at true friends moving company note that professional support usually allows you to avoid the stress and exhaustion that come with moving, with or without books. Here's what they say. A professional service brings a level of efficiency that is difficult to replicate. Experienced moveers can load and unload a truck in a fraction of the time it takes most individuals, saving you valuable time and energy. Their systematic approach to packing in transport minimizes chaos and streamlines the entire process. Final takeaways. As you now know, there are multiple good methods to pack books by the book. But the simplest method by far is to choose professional moveers,

who'll use all of the aforementioned techniques and more. So make your booking to get help boxing up books, and anything else you might need packed too.
