Our Packing Services are Here to Help You With All of Your Belongings

Our international movers use only the highest quality packing materials to ensure the safety of your belongings during transit. Our materials are sturdy, durable, and tailored to the needs of various items:

  • Bubble Wrap – For fragile items such as glassware and ceramics.
  • Packing Peanuts – Fills empty spaces in boxes to prevent movement and reduce impact.
  • Corrugated Cardboard Sheets – Adds an extra layer of protection for edges and corners.
  • Stretch Wrap – Keeps items tightly bound and moisture-resistant.

Additionally, we take extra precautions with delicate items, employing specialized techniques to ensure they arrive in pristine condition. Our team is trained in the art of custom wrapping and secure placement, minimizing the risk of damage.

Pick Between Full and Partial Packing Service

When you are handling all of your belongings, having a trusted partner by your side can make a world of difference.  That’s why when you are using our packing services, you have two options – full and partial assistance.

When you opt for full packing assistance know that we handle everything. Packing all your belongings safely and systematically leaves you to focus on other aspects of your move.

On the other hand, if you prefer to pack some items yourself, we can assist with the rest when you opt for partial packing assistance. We can focus on more challenging items to ensure they are well-protected. Just know that partial packing entails us handling 15 boxes or less.

Use Custom Crating For Valuable and Delicate Items

For valuable or oversized items, our custom crating solutions provide the ultimate protection. We design and build custom crates tailored to each item’s dimensions and fragility:

  • Tailored Fit – Each crate is custom-made to provide a snug fit for your items, reducing movement and the risk of damage.
  • High-Quality Materials – We use strong, durable wood and other materials that comply with international shipping standards, ensuring that even your most valuable items remain secure under all conditions.
  • Safety Standards – All crating follows strict safety standards, with attention to detail that guarantees the well-being of your possessions during their journey.

Our packing services are designed to eliminate stress and risk, ensuring that every item, no matter how large or delicate, is appropriately secured for its international voyage to Scotland.
