Pack the Whole House — or Just the Parts You Hate
HHG Movers can pack as much or as little as you need. Hire us for the whole home, the kitchen, fragile items, TVs and pictures, or the few rooms you do not want to deal with before moving day.
Packing at a Glance
You Do Not Have to Choose Between “Pack Everything” and “Pack Nothing”
The best packing service is often the one that fills the gap. Plenty of customers are fine packing clothes, books and everyday items but want help with the kitchen, TVs, artwork, mirrors or fragile collections.
Full-Service Packing
HHG Movers packs the household room by room before the move. This is the best fit when time is short or you want one company handling the entire process.
Partial Packing
You pack the easy rooms. We pack the rooms or categories you would rather hand off — kitchens, glass, pictures, closets, fragile decor or whatever is left.
Fragile-Only Packing
Professional help for dishes, china, mirrors, artwork, lamps, glass, TVs and other pieces that deserve more than a random box and a towel.
What Does Professional Packing Cost?
These are whole-home planning examples based on a normally furnished home. The actual packing quote depends on how much is in the home, how fragile it is and how much you want us to pack.
The Rooms That Eat Up Your Time
Some rooms are fast to pack. Others are where moving week disappears.
The Kitchen
Dishes, glasses, cookware, small appliances, pantry items and oddly shaped pieces make the kitchen one of the slowest rooms in the house.
Pictures & Mirrors
Framed art, mirrors and glass need the right size box, padding and orientation rather than being leaned loose in the truck.
TVs & Electronics
Large screens and electronics need more than a blanket. Proper boxes and padding make a big difference in transport.
China & Fragile Decor
Glassware, collectibles, heirlooms and decorative pieces benefit from proper wrapping and smaller, stronger cartons.
Closets
Wardrobe boxes can keep hanging clothes organized and reduce the amount of folding, bagging and re-hanging later.
Garage & Utility Areas
Garages tend to contain heavy, sharp, awkward and half-forgotten items that take longer to sort and box than most customers expect.
Different Items Need Different Boxes
Professional packing is not just putting more paper in a cardboard box. The box itself matters.
Standard Cartons
Small, medium and larger moving cartons are used based on the weight and type of contents rather than filling every box to the same size.
Dish Packs
Stronger cartons and appropriate cushioning are useful for dishes, glassware and other breakable kitchen items.
Wardrobe Boxes
Hanging clothes can move on a wardrobe bar instead of being folded or stuffed into bags.
Picture & Mirror Boxes
Artwork, mirrors, glass tops and framed pieces need cartons sized for flat fragile items.
TV Boxes
Flat-screen TVs should be properly boxed or protected for transportation rather than placed loose in the truck.
Paper, Wrap & Tape
Packing paper, cushioning materials, tape and other supplies are selected based on the item rather than treating every box the same.
Good Packing Makes Loading and Unpacking Easier
A well-packed home is easier to move because boxes are stronger, easier to stack and easier to place at the destination.
Room Labels
Boxes should be labeled by room so the unloading crew knows where they belong at the new home.
Balanced Box Weight
Books go in smaller boxes. Lighter items can go in larger cartons. Boxes should be packed so one person can safely handle them.
Load-Ready Boxes
Properly sealed cartons stack better and help crews use truck space efficiently without crushing loose or overfilled boxes.
Some Things Should Not Go in a Moving Box
Even on a full packing job, there are personal and restricted items customers should separate before the packers arrive.
Keep These With You
- Medications
- Wallets, keys and essential personal items
- Important documents and records
- Jewelry and highly personal valuables
- Phones, chargers and anything needed immediately
Separate Liquids & Restricted Items
Cleaning chemicals, open liquids, fuels, propane, paint, aerosols and similar items may require special handling or may not be appropriate for the moving truck. Point them out before packing begins.
A Simple Packing Process
The goal is to know what we are packing before the crew shows up with boxes.
Show Us the Home
Use the video walkthrough to show the rooms, closets, kitchen, fragile pieces, artwork, TVs and anything unusual.
Choose the Level
Decide whether you want full packing, selected rooms or fragile-only help.
We Bring Materials
The packing plan determines the cartons and materials needed for the job.
Pack by Room
Boxes are packed and labeled so loading and room placement at the new home are easier.
Where Is Your Time Worth More?
There is no wrong answer. The right choice depends on your budget, schedule and how much of the house you actually want to deal with.
DIY Packing
Best when price matters most and you have enough time to pack the home correctly before moving day.
Partial Packing
Often the sweet spot: save money by packing the easy rooms and pay for help where the time or breakage risk is highest.
Full Packing
Best when time is limited, the home is still fully lived-in, or you simply want the move handled with as little personal packing work as possible.
Questions Customers Ask About Packing
Can HHG Movers pack my entire home?
Yes. Full packing is available when you want HHG Movers to pack the household before the move.
Can you pack only the kitchen or fragile items?
Yes. Partial packing is available, and it is common for customers to hire us only for kitchens, glassware, pictures, mirrors, TVs or other fragile items.
How much does packing cost?
Whole-home planning examples are about $360 for a studio or 1-bedroom apartment, $630 for a 2-bedroom apartment, $936 for a 3-bedroom apartment, $900 for a 2-bedroom house, $1,350 for a 3-bedroom house and $1,800 for a 4-bedroom house.
Are the packing prices guaranteed?
No. They are planning estimates. The actual price depends on the amount of belongings, how fragile the home is, what materials are required and how much of the household you want packed.
Do you bring the boxes and packing materials?
For professional packing jobs, the packing plan includes the cartons and materials needed for the items being packed.
Can I pack most of the house myself?
Absolutely. HHG Movers can pack as much or as little as needed.
What should I pack myself?
Medications, important documents, wallets, keys, jewelry, chargers and other personal essentials should stay with you rather than going into the moving shipment.
Do you pack TVs?
Yes. TVs should be properly boxed or otherwise protected for transportation and should be shown during the walkthrough.
Do you pack pictures and mirrors?
Yes. Artwork, mirrors, glass and framed pieces can be packed with materials appropriate for flat fragile items.
Do you offer unpacking?
Ask about unpacking when your quote is prepared. The scope should be agreed to before the job so the crew and time can be planned correctly.
Can packing be added to a long-distance move?
Yes. Packing can be added to local, Georgia long-distance and interstate household moves.
How far in advance should I schedule packing?
Earlier is better, especially for whole-home packing. Two to three weeks is generally a comfortable planning window, with more lead time helpful during busy periods.
