How To Pack Your Computer

While moving get adequate insurance. Make sure that the moving insurance will pay for any damage to your computer. Because most of the insurance is based on weight, your computer may weigh 50 pounds, but if your stuff is insured at 40 cents per pound, you'll only be getting $20.00.

Copy all your data. If you can able to burn a DVD, then this is your best option. DVDs typically hold 4.7GB, depending on the burn speed. That's enough space to store most,of your files.

If DVDs isn't an good option, then purchase a flash drive, with 256MB, which should store most of your computer files. Both DVDs and flash drives are small so make sure whether you took them with you and put them in a safe place. Purchase a small lock box and store the DVD or flash drive, any instruction manuals and software disks.

Make sure you remove all disks from all drives.

Take your computer apart by first making sure the power is off, both the monitor and the box and disconnect it from the power source.

If you're new for dismantling and setting up a computer,then you label your cords before unplugging them. Simply write the use of plug on a piece of masking tape , and where it should be plugged into your box. After labeling all the parts wind them up, tie them and place them in a storage container or plastic bag and keep them with the computer.

Pack your printer, scanner and other computer equipment the same way.
