Miscellaneous Packing Materials Tape: The most common tape used for carton sealing is a plastic tape called “PVC”. “Newsprint” paper: Movers
OKC do not recommend using actual newspapers as wrapping material, as newspaper ink has a tendency to rub off on items it touches and it very difficult to remove it from items such as fine china. Also, we do not recommend bubble wrap except in very specific circumstances, as bubble wrap is known to be detrimental to the environment. Movers OKC use packing paper, similar to newspaper but without the print, as cushioning material. We sell packing paper as well. Please see our moving supplies section. Tissue paper: This can be used to pack up the most delicate and easily broken items by layering over an over again prior to wrapping in packing paper. Ziploc bags: These can be used for an assortment of things including small bits and pieces you may have lying about in containers and drawers. Magic Markers: You will need markers to mark easily visible labels on the boxes with denoting their contents and destination within your new home. Hopefully you find us good to give you a great knowledge about boxes and equipment.
