Packing Material
Does anybody know the name of a chain of stores that stock bubble wrap (the big rolls) and good cardboard boxes. I have tried every store locally and can't find it.
ps what is bubble wrap called in Italian?? Thanks |
Re: Packing Material
Try " polietilene bolle aria, or film a bolle d'aria, or just plain old Bubble Wrap said of course with an Italian accent.:)

Re: Packing Material
It's just "plastica a bolle" or "imballaggio a bolle" but I'm not sure where'd you buy a big roll of it.
Whenever I have needed some I've just told OH to bring me some home from work. |
Re: Packing Material
Just thought ... have you got a Mail Boxes near you? Maybe you could ask them.

Re: Packing Material
I think IKEA might do it if there is one near you. I'm sure I saw it there last week with packing boxes and stuff.

Re: Packing Material
Thanks unfortunately we do not have Ikea here but I will see if we have Mail Box.
Ernesto "bubble wrapo or bubble wrapi"??? Hubbie is a great one at putting an "O" onto the end of english words, once said to a a chap "you like cats" and put an extra o on to the end. The poor chap had a very worried look on him:rofl: |

Re: Packing Material
Was just telling dh about bubble wrapo and he just, sensibly, added that you can buy big rolls of this stuff in DIY shops. If there is a Castorama (Futurama in our house!!) then they do it but dh says he's seen it in our local 'Fai Da Te' as peeps use it to insulate their greenhouses!!

Re: Packing Material
Before the removal men came I started doing a bit of my own packing. I used quite a bit of news paper, FIL picked up loads of leaflets for supermarkets which had been left in the building. These were good for putting between plates etc :)

They call it pluriball here in this part of Turin. I know you can buy rolls of the stuff at Castorama but I don't know if there are any you're way.
