tips - Use Popcorn as Packing Material

Another packing material: popcorn! You can buy 10 pound bags of popcorn for very little money. All you need to do is get out your air popper, and 10 pounds of popcorn will probably fill up a very large move.

I really did this for one move when I went across country. I didn't have any significant breakage. Is it better than some of the eco-hostile packaging materials available? Probably not, but most things are not fragile crystal, anyway.

Not to mention, that you are using completely biodegradable material and if you arrive somewhere when you've just moved, have no food around, and are really desperate, there's always stale popcorn to eat until you get your phone service hooked up!
