I use my towels to cushion plastic totes for my fragile items and use hand towels and face cloths to wrap smaller items in. Then I just refold the towels in the new linen closet. My stash goes in clear plastic bins so I can see what colors are in what tubs.

When we knew we were moving from MN to NM we started collecting apple boxes from the grocery store. Standard size. Even w/full able to move...except the ones packed w/books. Stacked evenly. Labeled every box RE contents. However, when we moved into the house, there were a few boxes labeled STUFF.

If you're packing yourself, or paying yourself. use the stash as padding between dishes or collectibles. The glass/special items are wrapped and the stash is taken care of. Could put large plastic bags in the box first to wrap it all in.
could save some money and not have to pay the weight of the paper wrapping they/you would have used.
sorry just noticed the duplication of idea
