How to Pack Pots & Pans

Supplies needed:

  • Large boxes
  • Newsprint
  • Padding (newsprint, shredded paper, or packaging peanuts)
  • Tape

Instructions:

  1. Prepare a large box by taping the bottom.
  2. Place a two inch layer of gently crumpled newsprint, shredded paper, or packaging peanuts in the bottom of the box.
  3. Choose a few pots or pans that can be nested inside each other. For example: a large, medium, and small sized pot.  
  4. Take the largest pot or pan and place a large piece of newsprint over the opening. Nest the smaller sized pot within the first, pushing down the newsprint. Continue to follow the same steps until you've nested a few together.
  5. Place the entire bundle on a large piece of newsprint. Bring the corners of the newsprint up to wrap the entire set and seal it with tape.
  6. Put the nested pots in the box.
  7. Continue until you've filled the box or it’s reached a reasonable weight. Remember, you can place cooking sheets or cutting boards along the sides or bottom of the box, and cooking utensils (rubber banded together) can fill extra space.
  8. Tape the box and label it "KITCHEN" along with its contents.
