  • Moving Company in Boston Has Tips for Packing Computers and Other Technology for a Move

    (EMAILWIRE.COM, December 06, 2011 ) Canton, MA -- Humboldt Storage and Moving, the oldest moving company in Boston, United Van Lines agent and experts in stress-free moving knows how important it is to have household possessions packed correctly. That includes items such as computers, video consoles and others delicate technology.

    The Boston-area moving company has come up with several tips to help ease the stress of packing and moving household technology items.

    One of the first rules to follow when preparing technology for transport is to power down the items 24 hours in advance. Allowing proper time for the internal components to cool will minimize any risk of damage.

    When packing items such as flat screen televisions, the best and most affordable way to pack them is using the original box. If that is not available, many moving companies will offer a special corrugated box for transporting. If extra care is needed, consider having the moving company build a special crate for these delicate items. Many moving companies will offer these special services for valuable household goods. ItÂ’s also best to have those crated items unpacked by professional movers to ensure they remain in good condition.

    If there are home computers and they contain valuable and irreplaceable data, consider moving them in the car to ensure they stay safe. Moving computers can be done by the moving company but personal computers can also be subject to rough road conditions in a moving van. Also, it is recommended that any personal technology such as tablets including I-Pads and Kindles remain with the person.

    Technology such as video game consoles for the kids can be safely packed in the moving van. These consoles are made to withstand a little bumping around and in most cases, it will not hurt the components if they get moved around during transportation.

    Moving can be stressful but by taking the proper precautions with personal technology and items that can contain personal data, these can be one less thing to worry about during a move and cause less stress in the long run.
