move boxes

Moving house is always a massive undertaking, as you need to literally pack your entire life into boxes and transport them across the city, country, or sometimes even the globe.

To make moving all your possessions into your new home easier, try this trick for making cardboard boxes easier to carry.

All you need to do is make two hand holes into each side to make it easier to pick up and move around the boxes.

To create the hand holes, just use a utility knife to cut a ‘V’ into each side. Then fold the flap in to create a hand hole.

The hand holes make the box easier to carry, so you can get through moving quicker and enjoy living in your new home.
