When we moved from Holland to the UK, we used .聽 They packed everything, all glassware, ornaments, vases etc were wrapped in paper then in an appropriate cardboard box; clothes were put in an appropriate box/hanging wardrobe box).聽 They also put all the boxes in the appropriate room in our new house, then unpacked everything and took all the packagings away with them; they also came back a week or so later and removed the packagings from the stuff that couldn't be unpacked on the day.聽 That said, this was 25 years ago, and I chose the gold-label service (probably because my boss was paying for it, it's tax-deductible for them, don't be afraid to ask).聽 Bottom line is, you get what you ask/pay for.
