Packing Services

Moving is stressful enough without having to worry about whether your grandmother’s china or that glass coffee table will survive the trip. That’s why Cast Iron Moving offers professional soft-touch packing services—so you can focus on where you’re going, and not what might break along the way.

We’re here to handle the wrapping, boxing, and labeling of your most fragile and important belongings with care, precision, and attention to detail. Whether you’re moving your entire home or just need help prepping a few high-risk items, we’ve got your packing needs covered.

Why Choose Professional Packing?

We get it—most people can pack a box. But the real difference between a DIY job and professional packing comes down to peace of mind.

Our trained team knows how to:

• Wrap delicate items securely

• Pack boxes for optimal weight distribution

• Prevent shifting during transit

• Use proper materials to reduce the risk of damage

• Label and organize boxes for easy unpacking later

Packing isn’t just about filling space—it’s about protecting what matters. And let’s be honest: after a long day of coordinating logistics and organizing your move, the last thing you want to do is bubble wrap every wine glass in your kitchen. That’s where we come in.

What Is Soft-Touch Packing?

At Cast Iron Moving, “soft-touch” isn’t just a fancy phrase—it’s a promise.

We use gentle, efficient techniques to ensure that even your most fragile items are packed with the utmost care. From dishware to crystal stemware, framed art to photo albums, our crew is trained to treat every item like it belongs in a museum.

We also understand that some items have more than just monetary value. Heirlooms, collectibles, and personal treasures are packed with an extra layer of attention and respect—because we know what it’s like to move the things that matter most.

What We Pack

Our packing services are flexible and fully customizable. Whether you want us to pack everything, just the breakables, or only the rooms that overwhelm you (we’re looking at you, kitchen), we’re happy to help.

Fragile Items

• Dishware and glassware

• Mirrors and framed art

• Lamps and shades

We can also provide disassembly services for furniture and carefully pack hardware and small parts so nothing gets lost in the shuffle.

Packing Materials: Bring Your Own or Let Us Handle It

We’re flexible when it comes to packing materials. If you’ve already picked up boxes, bubble wrap, and tape, we’re happy to use what you’ve got. Prefer to let us take care of everything? No problem.

We offer high-quality materials for an additional charge, which can be added to your final bill:

• Small, medium, and large moving boxes

• Wardrobe boxes (with hanging bars)

• Dish packs and glass dividers

• Bubble wrap, packing paper, and foam

• Tape, labels, and markers

• Specialty boxes for TVs, art, and electronics

We’ll assess your needs ahead of time and let you know what’s recommended based on the size and fragility of your items. No surprises—just solid planning.

Full Packing vs. Partial Packing

We offer both full and partial packing services, depending on your needs and timeline.

Full Packing

Ideal for busy clients, large homes, or people who just don’t want to deal with the stress of packing.

We’ll handle every room, every item, and every box—neatly, safely, and efficiently. This is our white-glove service, where you get to step back and let us take care of the packing from start to finish.

Partial Packing

Maybe you’re okay packing your clothes and books, but want help with the kitchen and fragile items. That’s where our partial service comes in.

You choose the areas, and we’ll step in to wrap, box, and label those rooms or categories with expert care. Great for anyone who wants to save time without giving up control.

Unpacking Services Also Available

Just as packing can be a chore, unpacking can feel just as daunting—especially after a big move.

We also offer unpacking services upon request. We’ll:

• Unbox and place items in designated areas

• Remove and haul away all packing debris

• Help with light furniture reassembly if needed

• Organize as we go, based on your instructions

It’s a great option if you’re moving into a new home and want to get settled quickly, without the hassle of dealing with boxes for weeks.
