15. Flatware Storage

If you have silver or treasured flatware, storing it in its own container or wrap can keep it from tarnishing or scratching.  There are many storage solutions for flatware, including unique wooden boxes and soft pocket-style wraps or flatware drawer liners.  And the price range is also quite wide.  Choose flatware storage to fit your budget and needs, based on your storage limitations and keep your good flatware safe and protected.

China storage containers are great for short term pantry, closet or shelf storage where movement of these chests is limited.  But when it comes to packing household belongings for a short or long distance move, there's only one way to pack dishes, stemware and other breakables to reduce the risk of damaging them.  My packing tips will show you how to wrap and pack your china and other dishes when you're preparing for a move.  Once you arrive at your destination, return your good china and stemware to temporary storage in china protectors or china storage containers, while not in use.  Compare prices of moving boxes.
