Packing tips for your international move from Texas to Mexico

If you use these packing tips your move from Texas to Mexico will be less stressful.

• Start early with packing. If you're moving in the summer, there's no reason that you can't pack your winter clothes two months before your move date.
  
  
• Do not reuse boxes that have been used several times and are starting to wear.
  
  
• Pack all boxes TO capacity. Boxes that are overfilled can tear or fall apart and boxes that are underfilled are more likely to be crushed.
  
  
• Boxes should weigh about 25-30 lbs each. Accidents may happen when people expect that boxes weigh much more or less.
  
  
• Label all boxes when you're done packing them. Then draw arrows on them to indicate which side is the top of the box and write the room label on multiple sides.
  
  
• Wrap all glassware, china, and other breakables individually in towels or packing material. If you want to save money, you can wrap each item in a newspaper!
  
  
• Don't pack items if you don't need them! This will save you money. If you don't need something in your new country, just sell it before you move.
  
  
• Buy or rent garment boxes from an international moving company in Texas. These boxes are like portable closets, so you can transport clothing on its hanger.
  
  
• NEVER pack explosives, combustibles (gasoline), pets, liquids or food of any kind. These could cause damage and will void your insurance.
