Packing Services in Orlando, FL
The whole house, just the kitchen, or only the breakables, wrapped by the crew that moves them.
Full, Partial, or Fragile-Only Packing
People use a packing crew in three ways. Full packing means we box the whole home, closets and garage included, and you pack a suitcase. Partial packing is the kitchen, the glassware and the things on the walls, the rooms that eat the most time and break the most. Fragile-only is for people happy to box their own books and clothes who don’t want to be responsible for the china.
Pick one at the estimate. Packing shows up as its own line, because Florida law requires the estimate to itemize services like packing separately from loading, transport and unloading. For packing jobs the crew brings the boxes, paper, tape and protective wrap.
How Fragile Things Should Be Packed
Done right, plates travel on edge rather than stacked flat, with paper between each one. Glasses and stemware get their own wraps. Lamps come apart and shades ride separately. Mirrors and framed art get corner protection and stay upright. Every box is labeled with the room it’s going to, so unloading goes straight to the right place.
When something doesn’t fit a standard box, the answer is taking it apart. One customer with glass display cases watched the crew pull every glass shelf out and wrap each one individually before the cases were moved. That’s the level of care worth asking any packer about.
Packing for Florida Heat and Humidity
Packing in Central Florida has a problem people up north rarely think about: moisture. Cardboard softens in humid air, and furniture wrapped tight in plastic can trap moisture against wood and fabric, which is how a dresser comes out of storage smelling of mildew. Stretch wrap is fine for a same-day move. For anything headed into storage, breathable pads and paper are the better choice, and a climate-controlled unit matters as much as the wrapping.
Pack electronics in their original boxes if you still have them. Leave the pantry out of it: open food, liquids and anything that can leak or melt in a hot truck in August doesn’t belong in a moving box.
What to Keep Out of the Boxes
Some things should ride with you, not the crew: medications, passports, birth certificates, checkbooks, jewelry, work laptops, and the chargers you’ll need that night. Florida law says a mover can never refuse to hand over prescription medicines or goods needed for children, but the easy version of that rule is keeping them in your car. Paint, propane, pool chemicals, gasoline and aerosol cans can’t go on a moving truck at all.

Packing Questions
It depends on how much is packed more than on square footage. A lived-in kitchen can take longer than two bedrooms. For a full-home pack, packing is often done the day before so loading can start first thing on moving day. Ask when you get your estimate whether your home needs a separate packing day.
Yes, that’s partial packing and it’s the most common setup. Mark the boxes you packed yourself, since movers treat owner-packed boxes differently when something inside turns up broken.
Yes. For packing jobs the crew brings boxes, paper, tape and protective wrap, so you don’t need to collect boxes from the grocery store.
Yes, unpacking can be added. The crew unboxes and sets things out in the rooms and cabinets you choose, so the kitchen works on the first night. Get a quote and mention it.

Customer Reviews
We have an art studio with glass display cases and more. They were very communicative before, during and after, prompt, friendly and professional. The price was very reasonable and they didn’t do all kinds of tricky add-ons and surprise fees.
This past weekend, they helped move my mother, and from start to finish they were absolutely outstanding. They were professional, efficient, hardworking, and incredibly respectful throughout the entire process. What impressed me most was how carefully they treated my mother’s fragile and sentimental items.
After an incredibly stressful moving experience, Trey and his crew absolutely saved the day. Trey was professional, communicative, and made sure everything went smoothly from start to finish. A huge thank you to Marlon, Brice, and Garrett for all of your hard work, professionalism, and positive attitudes.
