Packing Like a Pro (Protect & Save)
Getting packing right prevents most damages and speeds up delivery day. Use this section as a complete, room‑by‑room playbook.
Do / Don’t (quick wins)
Do:
- Use double‑wall boxes, H‑tape (top and bottom), bubble wrap, and furniture blankets.
- Label by room + priority (e.g., Kitchen — Open First), and number each box for your inventory.
- Keep boxes ≤ 20 kg; heavy items go in small cartons.
- Protect corners/edges; wrap glass/mirrors separately; use dish‑pack dividers for crockery.
- Bag small parts/screws and tape to the furniture they belong to.
Don’t:
- Overfill large boxes with books or dense items (risk of burst seams).
- Leave drawers full (contents shift and damage frames).
- Mix liquids with electronics; avoid packing hazardous/pressurised items.
- Skip mattress/sofa covers; fabric tears and stains easily.
- Forget to photograph high‑value items before packing.
Room‑by‑Room Plan
- Kitchen: Use dish‑pack boxes; wrap plates vertically with paper; bundle cutlery in rolls; tape appliance cords; keep knives in blade guards.
- Living room: Remove TV base, pack screen‑side up with foam corners; coil cables in labelled zip bags; protect table corners; roll, don’t fold, rugs.
- Bedrooms: Wardrobe boxes for hanging clothes; vacuum bags for seasonal items; dismantle beds and bag fixings; protect headboards.

- Office/Tech: Backup data; original boxes if available; anti‑static pouches for components; separate monitors in padded boxes.
- Balcony/Storage: Drain fuel from tools; clean garden equipment; remove e‑bike batteries to hand‑carry where possible.
Fragile & Special Items — How‑to
- Glassware & crockery: Paper wrap each item, stack on edge in dish‑pack; fill voids with paper to prevent movement.
- TVs & monitors: Use original box or TV carton with corner protectors; keep upright, mark FRAGILE — SCREEN.
- Paintings & mirrors: Corner protectors + foam sheet + cardboard sandwich; keep vertical; label DO NOT LAY FLAT.
- Small appliances: Remove loose parts/filters; wrap separately; tape doors.
- Wardrobes & drawers: Empty first; remove shelves; tie doors or wrap with stretch film (no tape on finished wood).
- Mattresses & sofas: Slip into covers; add edge guards for leather pieces.
Labelling System (faster setup)
- Format:
#BoxNo — Room — Priority — Contents(e.g.,#12 — Kitchen — Open First — Pans) - Colour‑coding: Stickers per room (Kitchen = yellow, Bedroom = blue, etc.).

FAQs (Selection)
- How do you calculate the price? By capacity (m³), route, access (floors/elevator/parking distance), and service speed (part‑load vs dedicated). A quick video survey fixes the scope so you only pay for what you use.
- What’s the cheapest way to move within Varna or Varna → EU? Choose part‑load and keep dates flexible. Reduce volume (sell/donate bulky items) and pre‑book street bays/elevator pads to avoid delays.
- Can you move a studio/partial load? Yes – Moving Basic (5 m³) or Moving Medium (10 m³) covers boxes + a few furniture pieces.
- Do you offer express? Yes – a dedicated van runs to your exact timetable and usually arrives 1–3 days on Varna → Croatia routes.
- How long will my move take? Part‑load: 3–5 days typical. Dedicated: 1–3 days. Timings depend on distance and access at both addresses.
- Are EU moves duty‑free? Household goods are generally duty‑free within the EU. City permits, building approvals, or resort access rules may still apply.
- What documents do I need? IDs/passports, inventory list for insurance, and address details. If applicable: pet EU Passport, car registration/insurance, accommodation proof at destination.
- Do you cover all Varna districts? Yes — Centre, Primorski/Sea Garden, Levski/Chayka, Briz, Asparuhovo, Vladislavovo/Mladost, Galata, resorts (Golden Sands, Sts. Constantine & Helena) and nearby municipalities.
- No lift / narrow stairs – can you still move us? Yes. We plan extra crew, shuttle van, or an external hoist where allowed. Share stair widths and entrance photos during the survey.
- Pianos, artwork, glass or bulky items? We can handle them with custom crating, extra protection, or hoist solutions. Flag these during the survey for accurate planning.
- Can you pack for me? Yes – full packing, fragile‑only, or assisted packing. Optional unpacking & debris removal speeds your setup.
- What can’t go in the van? Hazardous/pressurised items, loose lithium batteries, perishable food. Always hand‑carry passports, jewellery, cash, and original documents.

- What if my dates change? Tell your coordinator ASAP. We’ll rebook the earliest slot; reschedule/cancellation windows are shown on your quote.
