One of the most critical aspects of an overseas move is the quality of the packing. At Hermes, we choose our packing staff and the quality of our materials with infinite care. As specialists in international moving, all of our packing teams are fully trained and experienced in the delicate art of moving your valued possessions.
All packing takes place in your home using only the best available materials. When our packers arrive, the foreman will identify himself and take a short tour of the home with you to identify any particular items requiring special care and to agree on a packing schedule that meets your needs, such as packing the beds last.
All of the materials that we utilize are specifically designed to protect your effects while in transit. We have a wide range of cartons available ranging from book, china, lampshade, parts boxes, picture, and linen to upright wardrobes for hanging clothing, for sea or road moves.
Fragile items such as china, glass and ornaments are individually wrapped in either “bubble wrap”, acid free tissue paper or white paper (depending on the item) and then packed in double wall export cartons. Any item requiring special care, such as antiques or paintings, will be packed in internal wooden crates measured exactly to fit and protect the individual items.
