Learn How to Pack Lamps

The following items will be needed to secure your lamps and lampshades for moving:

Medium boxes (3.0 cubic feet), large boxes (4.5 cubic feet), dish pack boxes (5.2 cubic feet).

Put the shade or shades in the box; be careful not to put too much paper. Lampshades could dent easily, cushion loosely
