Mastering the Art of Safely Packing Artwork and Mirrors
In life, our homes are canvases, holding memories and personal expressions. Moving, whether across town or the nation, requires preserving these delicate strokes. A recent AMSA study reveals 64% of Americans move at least once, emphasizing the importance of mastering packing, especially for fragile items like artwork and mirrors.

The Challenge of Safeguarding Your Masterpieces:
Art pieces and mirrors are not just objects; they encapsulate memories, stories, and emotions. Recognizing the fragility of these items, Premium Q Moving and Storage, with over 15 years of experience in moving homes locally, long distance, and internationally, has witnessed firsthand the delicate nature of transporting such treasures.
Understanding the Statistics:
According to a study conducted by the National Association of Realtors (NAR), over 5.6 million existing homes were sold in the United States last year. This signals a continuous movement of homeowners, renters, and individuals either upgrading or downsizing their living spaces. As these transitions happen, the need to pack and transport delicate items like artwork and mirrors becomes increasingly prevalent.
Proven Tips for Packing Artwork and Mirrors:
- Secure Framing is Key: Statistics show that a significant percentage of damaged artwork during moves is due to inadequate framing. Premium Q recommends ensuring that all artwork and mirrors have sturdy, professional framing to provide the necessary support and protection.
- Layering for Protection: According to a survey by the AMSA, improper packing is a leading cause of damage during a move. Premium Q advises using layers of protective materials such as bubble wrap, cardboard, and packing paper to shield delicate surfaces from scratches and impacts.
- Customized Packing Boxes: The NAR reports that the average American moves 11 times in their lifetime. Premium Q suggests investing in custom-sized packing boxes for artwork and mirrors to minimize movement during transit and reduce the risk of breakage.
- Labeling Matters: In a recent poll by HomeMovers, 72% of respondents expressed frustration with unpacking and locating items in their new homes. Premium Q recommends labeling boxes with a clear indication of fragile contents, ensuring that movers handle them with extra care.
