What else do people add to a kit?
Most people add more medium boxes, a wardrobe box with a rail, extra packing tape and packing paper. Tape is the thing people underestimate most badly, and clean newsprint is what keeps glass and crockery apart without marking it. Everything here can be bought on its own as well as with a kit.
Medium boxes, 10-pack
The size most of a kitchen ends up in.
Wardrobe box with rail
Hanging clothes go straight across, still on their hangers.
Packing tape, 6 rolls
Most people badly underestimate tape.
Packing paper
Clean newsprint for glass and crockery. Does not mark like newspaper.
