PACKING TIPS

SERVICES - Nicholas Moving and Storage offers complete packing, unpacking, and crating services. Our professional crews are capable of handling any packing scenarios and have been extensively trained in the handling of arts and antiques.

PACKING MATERIALS - If you choose to do your own packing, Nicholas Moving and Storage can provide you with boxes and materials. You can pick up these materials at our warehouse or, if you prefer, we offer a free packing supply delivery service on Wednesdays.

While we do not require that you use Nicholas Moving and Storage boxes, we strongly recommend that you adhere to the following suggestions:

TAPE - Tape the top and bottom of the carton with at least two strips. You may also choose to tape the seams for additional strength. We recommend using professional packing tape to ensure stability. Do not use making tape.

MATERIALS - Use plenty of paper and/or bubble-wrap to cover fragile items. It is preferable to use unmarked newsprint, as the ink from newspaper may blemish your belongings.

LABELING - Clearly label all cartons on the top and on two adjacent sides with your name, the room that the box is going into and a brief summary of contents. You should pack similar items together. Label all boxes containing fragile items clearly FRAGILE.

PACKING - When using non-Nicholas Moving and Storage boxes, make sure that they are strong and can withstand stacking. Cross out old markings on the boxes.
 

We Get Letters . . .

Dear Mr. Toubakaris,

Just a quick note to thank you and your moving company. The three man, Dan, Ron and Chad, were very friendly, professional and worked very hard and all of our furniture was put where we wanted it and they were careful with it.
Thanks again to you and to the three men too.

Jim & Pat Hough

Thank you for your kind assistance in this matter.

Sincerely,
Dr. Mory Hertwick

Dear Mr. Toubakaris,

On behalf of my family, I want to thank you and your company for the exceptional service provided in our move from Tennessee to Pennsylvania. Every step of the experience was the best of professionalism even under exceptional circumstances.

The three days to pack in Tennessee were among the worst of the summer. Each day reached a high temperature in the mid nineties with humidity to match. Some of the furniture got so hot while loading that it was difficult to handle the sun. Our arrival in Pennsylvania was met with lower temperatures but equal humidity. It was amazing how well your people worked under these conditions.

We were impressed with the care your team gave to our belongings. Everything was handled with great care and appreciation for our possessions. When we finished unpacking over 30,000 pounds, we had very minor breakage and those bumps were taken care of without question or issue.

You personally visited us twice during the unpacking stage to assure that everything was going well. We appreciated your personal attention to our move throughout every step but especially at the end. To have the owner of the company show such attention to detail meant a great deal to us.

We are eager references for your company. You can be assured we have and will speak highly of the services you provided us.

As your own slogan was so aptly proven, "service is remembered long after price is forgotten."

Best Wishes,
Robert M. Smith
