- Wrap all breakable items (everything with the exception of your tupperware)
- Separate all items, keep all cups together, plates together, separate china from cutlery, etc. You will be thankful that you did this when you are unpacking.
- Take sheets of newsprint to cover each piece of kitchenware. I use recycled newspaper (better for the environment and more cost effective) However, if you are concerned about the ink on your dishware, you can purchase ink-free newsprint which is just as effective. Crumple the newsprint to fit each piece of kitchenware
- Cover delicate pieces with bubblewrap over the newsprint.
- For extremely delicate items, wrap with newsprint first, then follow with bubblewrap. If it very delicate, purchase cell packs to separate each covered piece from one another.
- Use cell packs to separate layers of dishes.
- Pack boxes putting the heaviest items on the bottom, lightest on top
- Seal with extra cell packs
- Use packing tape to seal box

Very useful and informative tips for packing your kitchenware. Thanks for sharing this with us. If you're up to buying a new kitchen supplies and equipment check out http://www.lionsdeal.com/.
Moving to a new home is a good opportunity to dispose of old, worn out or unwanted items..:-)
And one thing more is that..when you move your kitchen table and chairs, make sure to cover them with blankets..that will protect them from scratches during the move.
