How To Pack Big-Screen TV
You'll need:
- Tape
- Original packing boxes and foam forms
-or-
Large new box and foam forms
How to pack:
- Unplug your big screen TV. Be sure to leave the cable
and cable box behind, since those belong to the cable company.
- Lay it gently on its side and slide the foam forms on
either end. Then slide it into the box, set it upright,
seal it, and mark it "Awesome Big-Screen TV."
- If you don't have the original box, you will still need
more than plastic peanuts. Companies that sell packing
materials probably have dense Styrofoam blocks you can
use. Gently lay the TV on its side on top of a piece of
foam. Tape another piece of foam on the bottom and slide
the whole thing into the box. Fill in all sides with foam,
then seal and mark "Awesome Big-Screen TV."

Tip #18
Prepare an "Unload Me First" carton with essentials that you'll need immediately at your new home (Essential Items). Include a baggy filled with hardware from disassembled items, such as dresser mirrors and beds.
