ive been really thinking of adding pre-built lego sets into my ebay selling roster, this information is EXTREMELY helpful in my quest, thank you VERY much, and congratulations on your new home!
An easier solution i found was putting each set in it's own garbage bag so it'll all be in there. I then put the bags into plastic storage bins and used expanded foam bags to keep them from moving too much.
Sounds like a good method! I'd imagine garbage bags may be more expensive, and harder to tell what is inside after it's packed. It's whatever works though! Thanks for your comments.
Sounds like waaaaaay more work. Just do what this guy says and carefully place in boxes. If they break… so what? They’re LEGO sets lmao. Tbh they likely needed to be cleaned anyways. So why not clean and rebuild? Or if lazy… just rebuild what small amount broke. There is ZERO need to but SOOOO F*******ING MANY TRASH BAGS AND EXPAND FOAM BAGS. Like WTF even is this??? You couldn’t even tell what’s in each bag and easily lose parts in that bag. This is terrible advice. Like, REALLY bad
Hey just wanted to thank you for the video! I’m just now unpacking everything and it looks like this method worked great so far. This was exactly the video I needed to find.
The way I packed mine for a few different moves was straight up just bubbled wrapping every single set individually instead of cling wrap so that each set is individually insulated and protected from scratches or bends as they all get clumped together in the boxes
That sounds like a good method too. I think bubble wrap may be more expensive. But overall it's just whatever method makes you feel the best and protects your collection how you want!
Thank you for this, I’m about to move in a couple of weeks and I was trying to figure out what I was going to do with my Lego sets. Glad I came across your video. By the way my move is 24h drive so I definitely need to keep them Lego’s secure
I need to transport these sets over seas “RMS Titanic” UCS Razor crest” “the UCS Millennium falcon” “UCS star destroyer” any tips for massive Lego sets? 😅
Im moving at the moment at freaking out on the rebuild process im definitely enduring lol My ISS, Lunar lander, original AT-AT are going to be in shambles 😅 Luckily i can shove my fragile Hubble telescope inside the Shuttle!
I would assume the same thing would apply with Lego fighter jets like 1600ct pieces f22 , f35 etc. Trying to figure out ideas such as this to secure my models properly so they don’t fall apart etc while transport.
Went great! All my LEGO sets were relatively unscathed, the ones I've unboxed so far at least. The follow-up video is filmed and edited, dropping very soon!!

@@StaticFPVit’s really not a great idea lol

@@NewBrickerton That's fair but there was already a lot of bubble wrap around when I had to move so the cost wasn't a factor there
Good tips. I'm moving in a couple months and was dreading moving all my Lego. Thanks! Great video
I'm excited for the new location! Congrats.
Thank you so much!
thank you so much! i brought a lot of lego to my new house using this method and nothing fell apart, great video!
Thanks for this, worked for me. Rock Chalk Jayhawk!!
Glad it helped!! M I Z. I'll see you at the border war :)
Very underrated video. Thank you and good stuff.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comment!
I'm moving next week. Thank you so much for these tips!
I really need help with specifically packing a Lego Ninjago dragon. 😢 Will use these tips for my sets though! Thanks!

Awesome vid! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
This has been THE most helpful video! We’re about to move house and my son has a huge Lego collection and I’ve been wondering how on earth to move it!
Ur collection is so awesome, hopefully i get a collection as big as yours
You can do it! Thank you. It takes time to build a big collection so just keep going!
Congrats! I’m not moving yet, but great info for when I do!
Awesome! Thank you!
CONGRATS ON THE NEW HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much!!
Thanks for the helpful info!
Thank you for all your help
Cool!
Thanks shadow wolf!
I need to transport these sets over seas “RMS Titanic” UCS Razor crest” “the UCS Millennium falcon” “UCS star destroyer” any tips for massive Lego sets? 😅
Overseas is another beast, I'd say add as much padding as you can and start praying!
@@NewBrickerton I was thinking the heavy duty totes
@@tricky_knife_tricks I think that's a great place to start. Whatever you can do to minimize extra movement!
Thank You!
Im moving at the moment at freaking out on the rebuild process im definitely enduring lol
My ISS, Lunar lander, original AT-AT are going to be in shambles 😅
Luckily i can shove my fragile Hubble telescope inside the Shuttle!
I know it's super stressful. Just be as careful as you can. You can do it!!
thank you so much this really helped me alot👍😄

I can definitely recommend the saran wrap as a great way to keep the pieces together but you just have to be careful.
I’m sad my Lego City is currently in storage because I have no room for it :( brings back bad memories of packing it all up
That is sad! I hope someday soon you are able to return to LEGO city paradise!
My mother told me to chamge how i packed my legos... this realy is going to help 😊
We should take New Brickerton and push it somewhere else!
That idea may just be crazy enough.... TO GET US ALL KILLED
Is there an after video? How did the move go?
Went great! All my LEGO sets were relatively unscathed, the ones I've unboxed so far at least. The follow-up video is filmed and edited, dropping very soon!!
Does the shrink wrap cause the bricks to stick to it and pull apart?
The truck tipped over and the builds broke
Ahh! Well, there isn't much you can do to prevent that.
Does this works when moving between country? Do i have to wrap, and bubble wrap so then i can make sure protect my legos?
It will work, if you are moving them yourself then be careful, but if movers are handling it for you then you will want to have more padding.
Second! WOOHOO ❤
you made it! :)
