📦 Moving to Germany, Netherlands, France, Spain or Poland – How to Pack for an International House Move ? How to pack your house move properly and safely

If you are moving house proper packing is one of the most important parts of a successful international move. Good packing protects your belongings and makes loading and unloading faster and safer.

✅ Use strong cardbo

ard boxes, not bags

Do not overload boxes — each box should be max 20 kg

✅ It’s better to use more boxes and keep them lighter

✅ Pack heavy items in small boxes, light items in big boxes

✅ Wrap fragile items with bubble wrap, blankets or towels

Label every box (room name + FRAGILE if needed)

Do not mix rooms — one room = one box type

✅ Keep documents, medicines and essentials in one separate box

✅ Mark boxes that must be loaded last / unloaded first


🚚 When moving to Germany, Netherlands, France, Spain or Poland, heavy boxes are difficult and unsafe to load into the vehicle and increase the risk of damage or injury. That’s why 20 kg per box maximum is the safest rule for international removals.
