When moving, be careful not to use tape on your furniture to hold dresser or night stand drawers closed. The tape can easily damage the finish, especially in hot weather. Use a self clinging cellophane wrap. It can be purchased on different size rolls at hardware stores, UPS, and office supplies. Wrap around lamps or fragile items also.

plastic cling wrap works great! You can get a roll of it pretty cheap and you can even wrap your remote control right on your television so that when you arrive at your new home you don't have to search for it. you can cling wrap a drawer so that all the contents stay inside. There's so much you can do with it!
RE: Use Cellophane Instead Of Tape To Keep Drawers Closed When Moving

If you are speaking of Shrink Wrap Cellophane, it's so expensive that I could NEVER afford it. Several friends use it in their shipping departments. Is there another more affordable cellophane used for shipping? About how much should it cost a roll? : )
