Make sure you always keep the same structure and ordering that’s already in use. In other words, do not mix the archive items unnecessarily. Resist the temptation to store materials together if they don’t belong together, simply to fill the boxes better. You can use crumpled up paper to fill empty spaces in boxes so that the stored materials don’t move around. Archive facilities prefer to receive a few extra boxes containing a well-organised archive than a compactly packaged but disorganised archive. So make sure the new custodian doesn’t need to unpack all the items and put them back in the right order, which can be a big job. Package everything as if you are the person receiving the archive.
