How to Prepare a Rug for Moving

When you have a lot of items to pack in moving boxes, it's easy to forget about other items that you can't pack in moving boxes or containers. Rugs are some of the commonly forgotten items during this part of the moving process. Contrary to what many people believe, you can't just roll up your rugs and place them inside the moving vehicle. Just like any item in your inventory, there are proper ways to pack rugs to minimise the risk of damage, especially when the goods are relocated from your old home to the new one.
