Other Materials
Tape:Every box needs to be taped, top and bottom, with 2 - 2 1/2 inch simple packing tape to give it additional strength and prevent the box from opening. You will need approximately one roll of tape for every 15 to 20 boxes. You can buy the tape from the hardware store or from NorthStar Moving. Our tape is tan vinyl packing tape
2” x 55 Yard. 1.6 Mil thick.
Wrapping paper:Ordinary newspaper will do fine for this purpose, but be careful because the print will run. For items you want to keep clean, you can buy unprinted white packing paper. The wrapping paper we sell is plain unprinted packing paper 24” x 36”.
Original packing:Whenever it's available, use the original packing material for your electronic items: stereo, computer, etc.
