With the dish saver kit you can wrap your dishware and place them in one of the five dividers inside the box.

If you don&#8217;t have foam you can also use old newspaper or magazines, but note that you won&#8217;t have as much protection. With any of these protective materials, remember to wrap the glass with protective material and stuff it inside the glass as well.<a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/DSC01015.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-18335\" src=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/DSC01015-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"cell kit\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/DSC01015-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/DSC01015-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Dish Barrel Box<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;line-height: 1.5em\">This box is specially designed with double-walls to protect items like your wedding china and or your favorite mosaic vase.
