Moving Boxes

Boxes for Moving House and Packing Materials

When planning a home or office relocation, moving boxes and packing materials are not just accessories—they’re essentials. The right materials ensure your belongings are protected, your packing process is efficient, and your move is as stress-free as possible. At Removals Help, we provide high-quality packing supplies that cater to every moving situation—from small flats in East London to full-scale family house removals across the city.

Whether you’re packing fragile items, bulky furniture, or sensitive electronics, selecting the appropriate boxes and materials will reduce damage, make labeling and stacking easier, and save time on both ends of your move.

Here’s a breakdown of the most essential packing materials that we recommend and provide to our customers:

Shrink Wrap

Shrink wrap, also known as stretch film, is one of the most underrated yet powerful tools in your moving toolkit.

• Primary Use: Wrapping furniture, securing drawers or cupboard doors, bundling items together.
• Benefits:
  • Keeps furniture pieces together (e.g., sofas with cushions).
  • Prevents scratches and dust accumulation.
  • Adds an extra layer of water resistance.
• Pro Tip: Use shrink wrap in combination with moving blankets for superior protection of wood or leather surfaces.

We supply both standard and industrial-strength shrink wrap, ensuring your valuables are tightly secured without damage.

Bubble Wrap

Bubble wrap remains a go-to material for protecting fragile and high-value items.

• Ideal For:
  • Glassware and ceramics
  • Electronics
  • Ornaments and artwork
• Why It Works:
  • The air pockets absorb shock during transit.
  • It conforms to odd shapes and corners for maximum protection.
• Sustainability Note: We also offer eco-friendly bubble wrap options made from recycled materials.

Don’t skip this layer if you’re packing anything with sentimental or financial value. It’s the first line of defense against accidental drops and bumpy roads.

Offcuts Paper / Packing Paper

Packing paper—also called offcuts paper—is one of the best ways to cushion and wrap without causing surface damage.

• Best Used For:
  • Dishes, bowls, and crockery
  • Wrapping glass and picture frames
  • Filling gaps in boxes to prevent movement
• Advantages Over Newspaper:
  • No ink transfer
  • Cleaner and more professional presentation

For clients booking a full packing service, our team uses premium-grade, acid-free paper to ensure total safety.

Mattress Covers

Moving a mattress without protection is one of the biggest mistakes people make.

• Why You Need One:
  • Keeps your mattress clean and dry
  • Prevents tearing, staining, or bug exposure
  • Essential for long-distance or storage moves
• Sizes We Offer:
  • Single
  • Double
  • King
  • Super King

Our mattress covers are thick, waterproof, and reusable—perfect for protecting your sleep investment.

Tape / Sellotape

You’d be surprised how many moves get delayed because of poor-quality tape.

• Features of Quality Packing Tape:
  • Strong adhesion even on dusty cardboard
  • Doesn’t peel off in cold weather
  • Tears easily from dispensers
• What We Recommend:
  • PVC or polypropylene tape for box sealing
  • Fragile-labeled tape for delicate boxes
  • Masking tape for temporary labels

We include free tape dispensers with large packing kits for your convenience.

Storage Boxes / Archive Boxes

Storage boxes and archive boxes are ideal for documents, books, small electronics, and seasonal items.

• Business and Personal Use:
  • Archive old records securely
  • Organize paperwork during office relocations
  • Pack books without overloading boxes
• Features:
  • Reinforced handles
  • Stackable design
  • Lid closures to prevent dust

Our archive boxes comply with UK business standards for secure document transport.

Additional Packing Materials

Packing Peanuts

Packing peanuts fill empty spaces in boxes, providing cushioning and preventing items from shifting during transit. They are lightweight and suitable for protecting fragile items.​

Furniture Blankets

Furniture blankets offer protection for large items like sofas, tables, and cabinets. They prevent scratches and dents during the moving process.​

Wardrobe Boxes

Wardrobe boxes are tall boxes equipped with a hanging rod, allowing you to transport clothes without removing them from hangers. This keeps your garments wrinkle-free and organized.​
