At GiftWorksPlus, we know moving is a big deal. There is so much preparation before the actual move – not to mention the work of unpacking! Unfortunately, finding broken treasures after the move happens too often. The good news is there are steps you can take to protect keepsakes like family photo frames.
There are several different ways to protect your beloved personal picture frames. One is to wrap each frame in newspaper, and then to tape cardboard over the newspaper. Place the cardboard-protected frame in a flat box and fill any open space with packing material so the family picture frame does not slide around. Tape up the box and label it well – be sure to include “fragile” on the box as a reminder to the movers to take extra care.
Another method for packing family frames is to wrap them in sheets of bubble wrap and tape down the wrap’s edges. Or, instead of wrapping and taping sheet by sheet, consider a bubble wrap envelope. This can be as simple as re-using a bubble-lined shipping envelope, or as cautious as purchasing special frame pouches online.
When the frame is wrapped and sealed, place it in a box, fill in any empty spaces, and mark the outside as fragile. When placing the box in a vehicle for transportation, try to keep it upright instead of flat to absorb pressure easier. Make sure it is not underneath heavier boxes!
In case the frame your photo is in becomes damaged, you can find a customized photo frame that fits your family at www.GiftWorksPlus.com. Discover an extensive selection of customizable picture frames and picture gifts that can be engraved with names, dates, and more. Free personalization is standard at GiftWorksPlus, making the custom picture frames a great value. And, as always, shipping is free at GiftWorksPlus for orders totaling more than $50.
