You have thought about how you will move your large electronics,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/storage-blog\/how-to-pack-dishes-and-glasses-for-a-move\/\">your fragile dishes and china<\/a>, and your appliances.<\/p>\n<p>But what about your shoes? Oftentimes, people on the move may not initially consider the importance of how to pack shoes for moving. They may end up frantically throwing them in a box or bag at the last minute, which can make them scuffed, crumpled, or damaged in some other way. Follow these moving tips for packing shoes to keep them safe.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"assess-your-shoe-inventory\"><b>Assess Your Shoe Inventory<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step of how to pack shoes for moving is to plan out your project.&nbsp;Before you start cleaning and boxing them, take a moment to go through your current assortment of shoes. Decide if there is anything you may not need or want anymore. How do you know when it&rsquo;s time to throw away shoes? Ask yourself:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Are there any shoes that are seriously damaged and beyond repair?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It might be time to let them go.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Did you find shoes you forgot you owned because you never wear them?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If you know you are probably not going to wear them in the future, consider donating your shoes. A local charity or an organization, such as&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/dressforsuccess.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dress for Success<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that prepares homeless women to enter and succeed in the workforce, are great options.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Do you have shoes you don&rsquo;t like anymore?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Do a final run-through. If shoes don&rsquo;t fit right or you are just not happy with them, now is the best time to clear some space and move on.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"sort-your-shoe-collection\"><b>Sort Your Shoe Collection<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After you have made your final lineup of the shoes that will be making the move, keep going. Sort the shoes into categories such as casual shoes, athletic shoes, dress shoes, leather shoes, etc. Different shoes and materials have different storage needs, so sorting your shoes will allow you to prepare and pack your shoes accordingly.<\/span><\/p>\n<html><body><div id=\"in_post\">\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/search\" onclick=\"rudderanalytics.track('press editorial cta button', {location: 'first in post', version: '2.0'}, () =&gt; { console.log('track call'); });\">\r\n  <div class=\"first-in-post-cta\">\r\n    <header>\r\n      <h2 id=\"how-neighbor-is-changing-storage\">How Neighbor is changing storage<\/h2>\r\n    <\/header>\r\n    <section>\r\n      <div class=\"service-option\">\r\n        <div class=\"service-option-icon\">\r\n          <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" viewbox=\"0 0 60 60\" fill=\"none\">\r\n            <path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M13.125 9.375C11.0539 9.375 9.375 11.0539 9.375 13.125V46.875C9.375 48.9461 11.0539 50.625 13.125 50.625H46.875C48.9461 50.625 50.625 48.9461 50.625 46.875V13.125C50.625 11.0539 48.9461 9.375 46.875 9.375H13.125ZM28.125 16.875C28.125 15.8395 28.9645 15 30 15C31.0355 15 31.875 15.8395 31.875 16.875V20.625H35.625C36.6605 20.625 37.5 21.4645 37.5 22.5C37.5 23.5355 36.6605 24.375 35.625 24.375H26.25C25.2145 24.375 24.375 25.2145 24.375 26.25C24.375 27.2855 25.2145 28.125 26.25 28.125H33.75C36.8566 28.125 39.375 30.6434 39.375 33.75C39.375 36.8566 36.8566 39.375 33.75 39.375H31.875V43.125C31.875 44.1605 31.0355 45 30 45C28.9645 45 28.125 44.1605 28.125 43.125V39.375H22.5C21.4645 39.375 20.625 38.5355 20.625 37.5C20.625 36.4645 21.4645 35.625 22.5 35.625H33.75C34.7855 35.625 35.625 34.7855 35.625 33.75C35.625 32.7145 34.7855 31.875 33.75 31.875H26.25C23.1434 31.875 20.625 29.3566 20.625 26.25C20.625 23.1434 23.1434 20.625 26.25 20.625H28.125V16.875Z\" fill=\"#005EB8\"><\/path>\r\n          <\/svg>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <h3 id=\"transparent-monthly-savings\">Transparent monthly savings<\/h3>\r\n        <p>Renters save 30-50% on self storage, on average.

A little preventative maintenance will ensure they do not get damaged or develop mold. Follow these easy steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Clean your shoes:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Make sure your shoes are free from debris and dirt by wiping them down. This is especially important with athletic shoes. Once the shoes have been cleaned, allow them to dry fully before moving on to the next step.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Combat odors:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Do you have some unpleasant smelling shoes in the bunch?

There are several strategies you can use to get odors out and freshen them up, including:<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Freeze your shoes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use citrus peel, such as lemon, lime, and orange, to absorb odors.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drop some baking soda in them overnight to absorb the smells, and then throw out the remnants.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your shoes are still not completely fresh, consider packing them up with a dry tea bag.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Stuff your shoes:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It is important to stuff your shoes with rolled-up socks, packing paper or any crumpled paper to ensure they hold their shape when packed. Shoe trees are also an excellent option for loafers. But they can get a bit expensive when there is a large collection of shoes.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<blockquote>\n<h4 id=\"pro-tip\">Pro Tip<\/h4>\n<p>Worried about how to store boots? Don&rsquo;t fold them. Instead, slide pool noodles into the legs so that they keep their shape without creasing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"choose-the-right-material-for-wrapping-and-packing-your-shoes\"><b>Choose the Right Material for Wrapping and Packing Your Shoes<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storing your shoes properly involves a lot of paper, whether it is for stuffing or wrapping. While you may be tempted to grab some old newspapers or leftover gift-wrapping tissue paper, don&rsquo;t! Using printed newspapers or colored tissue papers can leave hard-to-remove stains all over your shoes. It is best to use a clean packing paper for anything that will be touching your shoes.&nbsp;Are you wondering&nbsp;how to pack shoes for moving without using too much paper? An even better option that will save you money and space is to use your socks to stuff your shoes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"wrapping-and-packing-up-your-shoes\"><b>Wrapping and Packing Up Your Shoes<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of your shoes that are worn down or very casual, like flip-flops, may not need to be protected in transit. But your dress shoes, your collection of high heels, and any high-end basketball sneakers will need an extra layer of protection to ensure they are not damaged.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>For your gardening shoes or running sneakers<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that have experienced some wear and tear and don&rsquo;t need special care for storage, tie the shoes to each other by the laces and store them loosely in a box.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>For your higher-end shoes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, finish stuffing the shoes and then wrap them. Use clean packing paper, bubble wrap, paper towels or even fabric towels to wrap each shoe individually and prevent scuffs. Some higher-end shoes come with flannel bags for storage. If you still have these, then you can store the shoes in the bags instead of wrapping them. Once you have wrapped the shoes, store each pair of shoes in individual shoe storage boxes or containers. If you have the original shoe box, then that is an easy and affordable packing solution for your pairs of shoes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"box-up-your-shoes-for-moving-day\"><b>Box Up Your Shoes for Moving Day<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When boxing up your shoes, it would be wise to pack shoes that are out of season separately from shoes that are more likely to be worn in the short-term. Separate these shoeboxes before boxing up the shoes. Focus on shoes that are currently needed versus shoes that won&rsquo;t be used for months down the line. This will make unpacking easier to prioritize.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that your shoes are stored in individual boxes, decide how you will transport the boxes efficiently. You can use large plastic storage containers or moving boxes to stack and store the shoe boxes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When filling up your boxes or containers, take note to place the heavier shoes on the bottom of the pile and then stack the lighter shoes on top.
