Skip to contentIt’s pretty safe to describe glass as a beautiful nightmare. There is something alluring in its transparency and is highlighted through the many designs and shapes glass is molded into.The nightmare part comes in the form of the fact that glass is easily breakable and that the consequences of shattered glass can be quite disastrous.Not only do those tiny shards literally fly everywhere, but they’re also so sharp that if one gets away while you’re cleaning up, chances are someone’s foot is going to be the one to pick it up.Now, imagine you’re moving and you want to take that beautiful glass vase that was a mother’s day present. What are you going to do?Don’t worry, we’ve got your back! I’ll be walking you through all of the steps on how to pack glass vases for moving in a way that prevents accidents. Stick around.Before we get into details about how to pack your glass vases, let’s talk about the general packing supplies you’ll be needing.Here’s what you’ll need:Before you start the packing process, count the vases you have and take their shapes into consideration. Then, prepare the number of boxes needed in alignment with the number of vases you have.Bear in mind that you shouldn’t pack multiple vases in a single box, or else they might crash into one another and break.Ideally, each vase should have its own box. If you have five vases, you should have five boxes. Make sure the size of each box is appropriate for the vase it’s going to contain.If you do need to put multiple vases in the same box, make sure to have plenty of cushion in the form of bubble wrap, air pillows, etc to keep them both safe.To start the packing process, you need to prepare the vase by stuffing it with packing paper (newspaper will work).Lay the vase on its side on the wrapping paper near the corner. Start rolling the glass vase and putting the top part of the paper into the opening of the vase and bringing the bottom part to the base of the vase as well.Now you’re ready for the bubble wrap. Wrap the whole thing in bubble wrap so that it can better cushion the vase against the sides of the box.You can secure the bubble wrap around the vase with some tape or, if you have an abundance of it, you can roll it out in an extra-long piece that won’t become undone during the moving process.Now that you’re done with the vase, it’s time to pad the box itself on the inside with bubble wrap, packing paper, air pillows or even regular pillows will work if necessary.Line the box in a way that covers the bottom part as well as the sides. This should shape a sort of nest for the fully wrapped vase to be placed in. Then, place the vase in the nest.After that, you’re free to cover the top of the vase with similar padding material such as moving blankets, packing paper, soft tissues, bubble wrap, and even light Styrofoam so that it acts as an additional buffer. Next, close up your box and make sure to tape it shut.Lastly, write on the side which way the box should be positioned and a reminder to our fated carrier about how fragile the contents of the box are.We hope that the information shared in this post has provided you with the needed insights with regard to how to pack glass vases for moving.The most important rule of thumb is that you need to have adequate padding in the packing box and around your vase. Make sure that you choose the box that best suits the amount of padding you have, as well as the size and shape of your vase.That, coupled with the gentle efforts of yourself and the hired movers in carrying the box, should help in decreasing any chances of unwanted accidents.This combination of using plenty of padding, labeling boxes well and making the effort to be extra careful while carrying and placing boxes is really the best advice for moving all of your fragile items.May lady luck be on your side on your moving mission and may your losses be very few, if not nonexistent.You’re moving into a new home along with all of your belongings.
