How should I prepare for the move when it comes to small kitchen appliances i.e. toasters, mixers, blenders?

These items should be packed in boxes, as should all items that are not pieces of furniture. It significantly speeds up the moving process when we are just moving boxes and furniture, vs. tons of small random items that need to be carried by hand, wrapped up, and are not easily stacked. It also increases the risk of damaging these items, and we cannot accept liability for them so it is risky to have us transport them like this. It sometimes makes sense to just put these awkward items in your vehicle rather than pack them.
