When packing dishes for a move, it's important to carefully wrap and cushion each dish to prevent breakage. First, ensure you have a generous supply of packing paper, bubble wrap, and small boxes suitable for plates, bowls, and glassware. Next, wrap each dish individually in a layer or two of paper or bubble wrap. Use added cushioning on delicate items like crystal. Place wrapped dishes in stacks surrounded by paper in sturdy small boxes, filling any empty spaces. Finally, label boxes as Fragile and keep them light enough to lift safely. Pack plates vertically instead of stacking flat. This keeps pressure off of your delicate dishes.
