🦠 MOLD IS THE ENEMY!
This is Thailand. It's humid. Mold doesn't care about your feelings - it will throw a surprise party in your sealed box if you give it a chance.
The Golden Rule:
NEVER store damp things. Clothes MUST BE BONE DRY.
The Laundry Trap
⚠️ Warning: Clothes from laundry services are often slightly humid - they feel dry but they're NOT.
Let laundry dry for at least 24 hours in an air-conditioned room before packing.
Yes, we know you're leaving tomorrow. Plan ahead. Your future self (and nose) will thank you.
Protect Against Humidity
🌿 We've got you covered! We provide a lavender sachet with your box to help keep items fresh.
We'll also include a silica gel moisture absorber at delivery - pop it in your box before sealing!
Extra protection tips:
- Use vacuum bags for clothes - squeeze out air and moisture
- Add extra moisture absorbers for documents and electronics
- Silica gel packets from shoe boxes? Keep 'em, use 'em!
Don't Seal Until Pickup!
We know you're excited. We know you're organized. But don't seal that box until we're literally at your door.
Why? Because you will forget:
- • That charger you wanted to store
- • That book you realized you can't bring on the plane
- • That thing... you know... the thing!
Seal it when we arrive. Not a minute before.
Packing Like a Pro
Heavy at the bottom
Books, shoes, that collection of rocks you definitely needed to bring to Thailand
Light & fragile on top
Clothes, documents, that handmade ceramic from the night market
Wrap fragile items
Use bubble wrap, towels, or clothes as padding. Your stuff will thank you.

Quick inventory tips:

📸 Pro tip: When you're in Paris wondering "WHERE IS THAT THING I DIDN'T KNOW I HAD?!" - check your photos. "Ah yes... it's in my box... on Ko Lanta island." 🏝️
"What did I store again?" - Everyone, 6 months later
