The U-Haul Picture Packer Kit makes packing and moving pictures, artwork, mirrors, paintings, and other framed items easier. The kit includes four picture frame Corner Protectors that suspend your item in the box and generate a perfect, more secure fit. It also includes a 17’ strap that keeps the Corner Protectors snug to the frame. Packing and moving framed artwork, mirrors, and pictures has never been easier! The Picture Packer Kit is also ideal for picture frame storage and shipping. Pair a Picture Packer Kit with a U-Haul Mirror & Picture Box (not included) to give your framed items professional-grade protection during moving and storage.

The strap isn't the most intuitive to use - even though the buckle holds the strap very nice and secure, getting it to tighten as much as needed can be challenging.

Bands need to be softer for ease of install. The hard plastic is wound too tight in the kit
Recommends this product
It needs a better strap system.

Works great once you get the hang of how the strap tightens.

Can these be used to safely ship a glass framed picture?
Hi, Cathy! In addition to the Picture Packer Kit, we also recommend purchasing a material that you can fill empty space in the shipping box with to keep the picture from shifting. This could be crumpled Packing Paper or Enviro-Bubble. I hope that is helpful!
Could this be used on the corners of a flat screen TV?
Hi, Michelle! Yes, as long as the flat screen is no thicker than 2.2 inches. Thank you!

Can I put 2 pictures back-to-back in one picture packer kit? One frame is 1" deep and the other is 7/8" deep. Pictures themselves will fit in one box but need to protect corners. Thank you.
Hi, Dale! You could use 1 picture packer kit for 2 pictures if they both fit, but we'd recommend putting some kind of material such as Enviro-Bubble between the pictures to keep them from damaging one another. Thank you!

Hello, Lisa! The Picture Packer Kit is compatible with both our Mirror & Picture Box and our Large Mirror & Picture Box. The kit will not work with a round mirror. For packing a round mirror, we recommend using Enviro-Bubble and/or Furniture Pads to wrap and protect the mirror before placing it into a box. I hope that is helpful!

Does one pack have just four corners?
Yes, one package has 4 corner protectors.
What are the dimensions of the corners? Are they adjustable!

The corners are solid styrofoam, but the strap that attaches them to the frame is adjustable.

Sorry Patrick, this is a Picture Packer Kit which only contains the styrofoam corners and only comes in 1 size.
If you would like additional protection for your picture beyond the Picture Packer Kit, you can pair it with either the U-Haul Mirror Box or the U-Haul Large Mirror Box for optimal protection!
How much extra length and width does this add to the picture? I have a picture 42.5" wide - will it fit in the large mirror box with this kit? And this kit works with mirrors too, right?
These corner protectors (kit) will increase the width and height of the picture approximately 2". This kit does work for mirrors as well. As long as the picture/mirror is not more than 2.2" thick, this kit will work with the large mirror box. Thanks.
How do you tighten the strap? The strap is loose on the box, and the directions are not very clear how to tighten the strap. What do you mean by the loose end of the strap? Neither end is loose, once you fold the plastic tongue through the loop on the strap.
If you can't make the strap work using the instructions provided on the product web page, I think we may have a situation where something may be wrong with the strap we sent you. Before we send you another one, please call us at 1.866.277.6855. Please be logged in to the product page on UHaul.com when you call. Thanks.
