Small appliances seem simple to pack, in theory, Movers.com says in its latest guide. In reality, however, many are oddly shaped and fit poorly in anything besides their original packaging. If the original packaging is unavailable, the moving expert suggests using packing paper and small to medium-sized boxes.
Panini presses, espresso makers and air fryers became staples in many households as restaurant traffic was restricted. Sales of small appliances were 8 percent higher in March 2020 than in March 2019, according to data from Applied Marketing Science.
While the extreme surge was temporary, annual growth rates are holding steady at around 4 percent annually, according to data from Straits Research. The market size was valued at $16.56 billion in 2021, statistics show, and it is expected to grow to $24 billion by 2030. Clearly, Americans value their pressure cookers and won’t leave them behind when they move.
The guide recommends appliances be cleared of crumbs and grease before packing. Any parts that are safe to wash should be scrubbed, and clean, dry appliances should be disassembled and any detachable parts removed. Specific packing instructions are detailed further in the guide, but Movers.com generally recommends being conservative with the number of items packed into each box and liberal with packing paper to prevent shifting during the move.
If the process is too tedious or time-consuming, individuals can hire full-service moving providers to help handle all the preparation and packing. While full-service moves are more expensive, they are sometimes necessary for individuals with limited time or mobility, the experts say.
In addition to moving guides, Movers.com offers recommendations for top area movers as well as obligation-free quotes. The company maintains a network of screened moving companies and checks each business monthly for complaints to make sure customer satisfaction remains high.
