How to maintain the coziness of your home with potted plants? But how can you ensure your houseplants stay safe and undamaged during a move?
Houseplants, surprisingly, don’t handle moving very well. All houseplants, even the smallest ones, need to be packed carefully. Small pots with plants should be placed in boxes and secured so they don’t shift around; for this, the boxes must be firmly fixed in place. No other items should be placed on top of the boxes containing plants. When loading, these boxes should be positioned on top or in places where they won’t be accidentally damaged.
When preparing, it’s essential to label the packages so that during loading and unloading, everyone knows what’s inside and handles them with care.
With large potted plants, things get a bit more complicated. They are harder to pack and it’s not easy to find suitable packaging. These plants need to be secured from the bottom as well as the trunk and branches. The center of gravity in large plants is high, so the trunk must be fixed. Otherwise, the flower pots could be damaged during transport. They can also be harmed by other poorly placed items that may shift during the move. Therefore, the plants should be prepared in advance and well-secured during transportation. This way, your plants will arrive safely.
