The outdoor furniture tends to collect dust, dirt and other garbage. If you do not want your old debris to be transported to your new house, it is obligatory to clean everything.

Dry all the items that will be transported if you washed them or they are wet from rain or snow, wash the things that do not oxidize. If you need to take your rubbish bins, it is necessary to hose them down so as not to soil other things transported together.

In the process of packaging patio chairs or tables, you need to take away the cushions, pad sharp edges and hard items. All the removable fragile parts should be removed and wrapped separately.

Unfettered tools, accessories or small removable items of your furniture should be placed in a small container or a plastic bag and adhered to the necessary furniture item.

Use plastic coverage to protect pots from losing soil and water. It is better to move the plants in plastic pots. The ceramic pots should be transported separately and packed carefully.
