When it is time to move you will want to ensure your appliances and electronics are transported safely and correctly. One option is to hire professionals to handle this since they have experience with how to transport a TV and other things. But here are some tips so you can make sure it is done properly.
Dryer
Prior to cleaning unplug the dryer. Then you should clean the lint screen and the dryer. If it is a gas dryer make sure a technician handles disconnection at the old home and connection at the new home. If it is an electric dryer make sure the new home meets the electrical requirements before you plug the dryer in. You will need help with the dryer and hopefully a hand truck or dolly. Use padding such as old towels and blankets to protect it.
Washing Machine
The washing machine needs to be unplugged and then cleaned and dried before moving it. The hoses will need to be disconnected and drained. Wrap the ends of the hose in a towel and put them into the washer so they do not get in the way when moving it. Look at the manual to see how to secure the tub so it does not sway.
Oven
Unplug and then clean well. There are likely going to be a lot of grease spots and other grime to handle, inside and outside. Take out all the parts that are removable and pack them away in a box you label. If it is a gas oven it needs a qualified technician to handle disconnection and reconnection.
Fridge/freezer
When moving a freezer or refrigerator you will need to empty it and dry it out a few days ahead of time. Eat or give away the food that is still good, and then remove and wash all the parts that can come out. Allow them to completely air dry somewhere. Pack all the dry parts in a labelled box. Disconnect the water line if there is an icemaker or water dispenser, vacuum the compressor or condenser and clear out the evaporator pan. Clean the main fridge and let dry so it is done on the day of the move.
TV
When considering how to transport a TV it is important to give yourself some time, a lot of people rush it and then do a poor job. That is when damage or accidents can happen. Just because TVs are thinner and lighter than they used to be does not mean they are not something that needs some planning. If you kept the original box use that to pack it, buying foam or protective covering if you need more. Otherwise you can buy boxes designed for transporting flat screen TVs. Just make sure you get one that is large enough. It should have space for the TV, the packing material and not much more. Seal the box with packing tape and have bubble wrap or styrofoam at the top and bottom.
When it is packed in the right type of box you will need to safely pack anything that goes with it in a labelled box such as wires and remotes. Then you can cover it with a blanket or towels in the truck, or secure it when loaded with rope. You or the moving company should ensure it stays upright for the journey and does not have room to rock around. A TV should not be transported laying down. That is how to transport a TV the safest way.
