How to Pack Outdoor Equipment

Before moving day, dismantle children’s swing sets, TV antennas and garden sheds. Gather pieces and bundle together with nylon cord. Place small hardware in a cloth bag and securely attach to corresponding equipment.
Prepare lawn mower by draining gasoline prior to the day of loading. Food * Take only food items you are sure will travel well. Do not take anything perishable. In the winter months, do not take anything subject to freezing.
Open boxes of dried or powdered foods such as rice, macaroni and cereals should be sealed with tape. Small containers of herbs and spices, condiments, bouillon cubes, gelatin, flavorings, etc. should be placed together in a small box before packing in a large carton. Cover holes of shaker-type containers and seal with tape.
Since canned goods are heavy, the amount placed in one carton should be limited.
