Bold, fade-resistant marking for boxes, archive lids, shrink wrap, and storage labels – because moving and storage runs on clear labelling.

What To Label
- Moving boxes: destination room, contents, handling notes (‘FRAGILE’, ‘THIS SIDE UP’, ‘HEAVY’)
- Archive box lids and spines: department, date range, file reference
- Storage boxes in a self-storage unit: contents, owner, date packed
- Shrink-wrapped furniture and items: room, handling instructions
- Shipping cartons: reference numbers, recipient, handling notes
Moving
Every box should be labelled on at least two sides – the top and one face – before it is sealed and stacked. The two minutes spent labelling saves hours of opening random boxes at the other end to find the kettle, the school uniforms, or the phone charger.
Tip: Room name in large letters at the top, contents summary below. Circle priority boxes (open first) to distinguish them from the stack.
Storage & Archiving
For self-storage and archive rooms, clear labelling determines whether you retrieve a specific item in 30 seconds or spend 20 minutes unpacking half the unit. Label every box before it goes into storage. Write the date packed so you know which boxes are oldest.
