How to Label Moving Boxes for a Fast, Stress-Free Unpack

Good labelling is the cheapest way to make your move faster at both ends. It takes minutes and saves hours.

A system that works

• Label the side (not the top) of each box so it's visible when stacked.
• Write the destination room and a short contents note.
• Mark fragile boxes clearly on all sides.
• Number boxes and keep a quick list, so you know if anything is missing.
• Use one colour or sticker per room for instant sorting.
