Some people prefer to maximize space by creating a wall of boxes against the wall of the truck; others think it’s better to load large items such as furniture first to ensure that you have enough room for them. Either method can work fine, but if you have a lot of boxes of about the same size, stacking them against a wall first may be the best way to use the space you have efficiently. You can load boxes from ceiling to floor but be sure to use ties to secure them and keep them from falling. No matter how you load your van, try to distribute the weight evenly to make loading and unloading easier and to help make the vehicle easier to control on the road.
