Pack and move wine glasses properly


Wine is a way of life. As comedian Jack Whitehall aptly puts it in one of his routines, “If you have 4 glasses of wine in the UK, you are the designated driver”, it is safe to say that wine is an indispensable part of life in the UK. There are several instances which reinforce the fact. So, moving and storing wine glasses is a matter of importance that everyone should be aware of. When relocating your restaurant business or even residence, properly moving the wine glasses is a must-know. On that note,we would like to say that our self-storage in Islington is well-equipped to deal with the storage.

Now that the storage part is sorted with our climate-controlled and safe storage unit, we should understand the moving and packaging part of it. Here are some tips that can help you pack and move your wine glasses perfectly.



·  Specialty wine boxes: Did you know that there are specialty wine boxes to pack and move your wine glasses. Resembling checkerboard, these boxes are specially designed to carry wine glasses. You can get these wine boxes easily at one of your nearest convenient stores.


·  Save the stem: The stem of the wine glass is the most fragile of all. It has the maximum chance of breaking under extreme pressure. Additional support to the stem can help you keep it safe. Try wrapping it with bubble wrap followed by tissue paper for that extra safety.

· Packing paper is your friend: When packing glassware, packing paper is the best thing you can use. Wine glasses are no exception to this. Use packing paper in the glass to make sure the glasses don’t clink with others and develop scratches. Moreover, they also add on to the weight making it less likely to move around. Newspaper will also do for packing paper, but you need to make sure there is enough of it.

· Surround with support: Once you are done packing your wine glasses, ensure you have enough support in the packaging box. Fill up the empty spaces with packing peanuts. This will make sure the glasses stay in position during transit without adding any extra weight.

·  Label properly: Once you are done with packing the boxes properly,seal the boxes well and put up appropriate label. Marking with labels like “FRAGILE”, “WINE GLASSES” can help the moving unit stay alert. Moreover, it will also help you to keep them properly in the self-storage in Islington. While taking the glasses out, you will also pay extra attention due to the label. Use a “This Side Up” label as well to keep your glasses safe during transit.
