Moving once more next Wednesday. Back into a place of my own. I grew up in a house at 221 Bethesda Church Road. Then I lived for years at 221 Candler Street. By an odd twist of coincidence, this new apartment is also a 221. I am glad about being back in a 221 of my own.
I've just finished packing the suitcase with my stuff !
Before I leave for Scandinavia, I'm already tired because of packing.

CEA were employed to pack and lash 77 units of Mud Skips, Cargo Baskets and Gas Racks into 14, 40ft HC containers, the cargo received was too wide to fit in to the containers in the conventional way and would have to be turned on its side. CEA would ready the containers for load out and transport them to port where the cargo would be shipped to Nigeria to be used in the offshore Oil & Gas sector.
PROCEDURE
Two wooden beams were placed on the floor in each of the containers, the cargo, on its side would be placed on these to ensure no damage occurred to the panels during loading, transportation and unloading. Lifting slings that would be used upon arrival in Nigeria were attached to each piece of cargo before packing.
A CEA reach stacker lifted each of the containers and placed them on to their sides upon wooden blocks. CEA fabricated specialised roller units to facilitate the loading, two units were placed underneath the front section to support the cargo while being loaded by forklift from the rear.
Mantiou 3.5 t forklift’s and 5 t pallet trucks loaded the cargo into the containers, both fork lifts and pallet trucks were covered with protective materials to prevent any damage to the cargo.
After all Mud Skips, Cargo Baskets and Gas Racks were loaded the CEA team lashed and secured them in place. Wooden chocks and stoppers were installed to further ensure no movement while transportation and shipping.
All necessary supporting documents were provided inside each container. A third party inspection team checked all loaded cargo and sealed the containers with the appropriate shipping tags. The containers were loaded on to flatbed trailers and transported to port to await shipping.

I'm back from the conference (very good) but am now busy packing for the move. Forgive me for being rude in posting a photo and not commenting on all of yours. It's going to be a week or so until I'm moved and back online.
If you're about to move and you've realized your household has specialty items, don't fret, use a specialty item moving service to make sure your precious pieces are packed properly and can arrive at the new location safely and unharmed.
Defining Specialty Items
Specialty items vary by definition. They are basically all the items that require special care, and you'll want professionals in charge of moving them. Items you may classify as special care include: A piano, very heavy musical instrument that can't be moved by one person alone, it requires special tools to disassemble and reassemble. Art and antiques may require special #packaging to ensure they are damage-free when they arrive. Large electronic appliances such as TV, refrigerator and laundry machines will need special packing materials and dollies for safe and simple hauling. A pool table needs a couple experts with both strength and expertise to #maneuver it safely. A chandelier has a special crate to be moved in that lets it hang with padded sides. This crate also needs special #labeling to keep it right side up, during transit.
The Benefits of Specialty Item Movers
Putting your trust in an expert moving service for your specialty items frees you up from worrying about your precious stuff. You are not nervous to see your things when you arrive at your new location, wondering if anything is shattered or damaged. It also takes the weight off of your own shoulders, because some of these items are not one-person moveable items.
Personal Safety
You don't have to worry about dropping anything on your foot, spraining anything, and being in an uncompromising situation. Just think, if something happened to you, who is going to finish the job? Expert movers have special training, know-how and the right equipment to get things handled without any mishaps on your end.
Quick and Painless
Professional movers can hit their target quickly, aggressively, and get the job done. They are efficient and follow a tight schedule to keep you confident and stress free during your move.
Tight Space Maneuvering
Many people do not think about how to get around corners, hallways, stairs and other structures until they get upon it. Professionals are trained for these types of situations and can navigate precious pieces seamlessly.
Packing with the Right Packing Material
Sturdy cardboard boxes, crates, and other items will keep your items safe and secure while being moved. Professional movers know how to pack and know the correct materials to use for each special item.
Available Tools
Professional movers not only bring their strength and truck, but they also carry their own tools to help with moving. These items can include blankets, different dollies, belts, straps, ramps, pallet jacks and other items as needed.
