Shoes are an important part of all of our lives. Sure, they may have started to reduce our tetanus shots, but over time they have become a staple part of modern-day fashion. People are willing to drop 500 bucks on a new sneaker or high heel from a designer they know, sometimes even more! With over 40+ years of experience, we’ve seen our fair share of shoes collections. Even if you aren’t spending a lot on it, shoes are a part of our everyday life, so you want to make sure it stays just right!
Classy Heels
Ah the high heel, a staple for parties of elegance and class. These shoes must stay in their pristine condition, especially for the kind of price you may have paid for the heel. To protect them, you can take some small pieces of clothes or socks and roll them in the shoe so that it stays in their shape even when they might get shuffled around. Try to pack the heels in the center of the suitcase so they don’t take as much weight and make sure there are other pieces of clothing packed around them to offer extra protection.
These Boots Were Made for Walking
These are essential if you’re going somewhere that is cold and has rigorous conditions like snow or rain. Boots are a bit bigger so try to use up all the space of these bigger shoes to fit in more socks, scarves, or other small clothing items to 1) keep the shape of the boot 2) maximize storage space. Make sure to put these at the bottom of your suitcase to reduce the weight.
A Gentle Hand
When you finally determine what should be packed and what should be given away, you also need to make sure that you’re keeping extra care of those delicate items. The family heirlooms or the appliances that are too expensive to replace. Investing the right amount of money towards caring for the packaging of these items will be worth it in the long run when you don’t have to replace them. We suggest using a moving company that will guarantee their safety throughout the entire duration of your travels, however, it all boils down to how you pack them. Use bubble wrap, old blankets, towels, laundry bags, or anything around your house that can help pad the boxes, and don’t forget about labeling them fragile!
Sneakerhead
Lastly, sneakers are the most common and easiest to pack. As with all the rest of the shoes, make sure you clean them thoroughly and fill them with socks. Sneakers are a bit easier however since the top is flexible, so you can stuff these in plastic bags as an extra precaution so that your clothes don’t get dirty and so that the air is squeezed out!
