What belongs in small boxes
Books, canned goods, tools, and anything dense. Keeping weight in small boxes is the reason these exist, because a large box filled with books becomes unsafe to carry and risks the bottom giving out.

Getting the most out of Small Moving Box (Pack of 10)
Small moving boxes suit heavy, dense items that would make a large box too heavy to lift safely. Ten of them is a realistic starting point for a kitchen, a bathroom, and a set of bookshelves.
How far ten boxes goes
Ten small boxes typically cover a kitchen's pantry and a couple of bookcases. Most homes want more than one pack once you start on the kitchen and the study together.
Why to keep them light
Aim for roughly the weight you would carry comfortably with two hands. Packing heavier than that is where damaged boxes and strained backs come from.

Packing Questions
How much weight should go in a small box?
Enough that you can lift it with two hands without straining. Books and canned goods reach that limit quickly, which is exactly why they belong in small boxes rather than large ones.
Are ten boxes enough for a whole house?
No. Ten small boxes usually cover a kitchen and a modest book collection. Most households need a mix of sizes, with small boxes reserved for dense items.
Can I use small boxes for fragile items?
They work well as inner boxes for heavier fragile pieces, since the smaller size limits movement. Wrap items individually and add padding so nothing shifts in transit.
