<h2>Prep Your Mirrors to Minimize the Risk of Breakage</h2>
<ol>
<li>Use a specially padded box to transport your mirrors safely.</li>
<li>Look for a box sized just right for a mirror like yours when you purchase your moving supplies. If you have trouble locating an appropriate box, contact your Mayflower move coordinator.</li>
<li>Line the edges of your box with crushed news wrap to create a layer of cushion for your mirror to rest on.</li>
<li>Wrap the mirror completely in bubble wrap or padded paper and secure it tightly with tape before placing it in the box.</li>
<li>After the mirror is in the box, fill any gaps with crumpled news wrap.</li>
<li>We recommend packing only one mirror per box.</li>

For fine art, we recommend custom crating. When packing an oil painting, protect its surface with glassine paper.  1. Use a paper pad to wrap the artwork. A paper pad is a multilayered newsprint wrap used to protect larger fragile items. Only tape paper pad, never the artwork.  2. Use a mirror carton to pack large mirrors, artwork and frames. Assemble pieces and line the carton with crumpled newsprint. (For larger items you may need four carton pieces) 3. Place the artwork in the mirror carton and tape on all sides.   Mayflower is here to guide you through your move, every step of the way. We offer tailored services to meet your needs and budget.
