Packing Jewelry for a Long Distance Move

Packing Jewelry for a Long Distance Move Do you have any expensive jewelry or family heirlooms that you plan on taking with you from Denver, Colorado, to another country? If so, you’ll want to take extra care when packing it to ensure that it doesn’t get destroyed. The best way to keep your jewelry safe is to store it all in a sturdy and durable jewelry box. Wrapping the box in bubble wrap will also help keep it secure while in a moving box on the road.

You’ll also want to take steps to secure your jewelry while it’s inside the jewelry box. Even though it’s in a protective box, the jewelry can be tossed around in the box while on the road or when traveling on a boat or airplane. Different ways that you can pack individual pieces of jewelry include:

  • Placing the chains of necklaces through drinking straws to prevent them from becoming tangled
  • Using toilet paper rolls to secure larger necklace chains, as well as chains of bracelets
  • Wrapping your jewelry in soft packing paper (not newsprint), saran wrap, or bubble wrap to protect it against impact damage
  • Tying together the different jewelry pieces with rubber bands to provide further protection against them jostling around
  • Attaching earrings to cardboard cut-outs and taping the hooks on the back of the cards
  • Placing rings in sturdy egg cartons
  • Storing rings and earrings in day-of-the-week pill cases is another option

Hiring a professional moving company can also help ensure that your jewelry is securely packaged in a moving box for the duration of the journey to your new residence. Trained and experienced movers will also know to handle any boxes containing jewelry with extra care.
