Monitors & Flat Screen TV Packing
Keep your entertainment safe during your move with Professional Movers’ top-notch Flat Screen TV Packing Services
How We Pack Your Flat Screens Different
Over the years, Professional Movers.com has moved everything from Rear-Projection TVs, to Sony Trinitrons (known in our industry as the 100 pound Trin-a-TON), and the most modern flat panel monitors to date. The television has evolved to be lighter and more sophisticated, but the possibility for damages can increase during packing and moving. That is why all of our movers and team leads receive rigorous training on how to properly handle and pack flat screens to ensure they arrive at your new location safe.
We offer several packing options for your flat screen TVs and monitors depending on the type of move, monitor, and screen size. Your Moving Consultant will be able to help you select the right options when moving your home, office, or going long-distance.
What’s the Best Way to Pack My Flat Screen?
The best way to move your flat screen TV is by utilizing the TV’s original packaging. Unfortunately, it’s common for people to dispose of their original packaging when they purchase a new TV. That is why Professional Movers.com offers the best flat screen packing materials for any type of move.
Packing for Moving My Flat Screen Locally
If you’re planning a local residential move and need to transport your flat screen TV or monitor, Professional Movers.com has two recommended methods for packing and protecting your electronics during a local move: our TV Rental Box and Rental TV Tote Bag. Your Moving Consultant can recommend the following options:
Rental TV Box
The TV Rental Box is the alternative for transporting your flat screen TV or monitor when you don’t have the original packaging. It’s a specially designed box that’s made to fit a variety of screen sizes, from 32 inches to 70 inches. The box is made from heavy-duty, double-walled cardboard and includes a number of features that make it the ideal choice for packing and transporting your TV.
The TV Rental Box includes high-quality, padded inserts that’s custom-designed to fit your specific TV or flat screen monitor. These inserts provide an extra layer of protection for your electronics, helping to prevent scratches, dings, and other damage during transport. If you’re moving locally, Professional Movers.com utilizes Rental TV Boxes on almost every job.
Padded Nylon Rental TV Tote Bag
If you’re looking for a more high-end solution for transporting your flat screen TV or monitor, the Padded Nylon Rental TV Tote Bag is the way to go. This flagship product from Professional Movers.com is designed to fit screens up to 60 inches and provides the ultimate in protection and convenience during transport. Your flat screen is packed and ready to be moved on the spot before it leaves your home or office.
Both Local Flat Screen Packing methods include the following:
- TV Assessment Before Packing: The Move or Pack Team will determine the appropriate size of Rental TV Box or Rental TV Tote Bag needed to protect the TV during the move.
- Gather Supplies: The Move or Pack will gather supplies such as moving blankets, packing tape, and bubble wrap.
- Prepare the TV: To prepare the TV for packing, the Move Team will first unplug the TV and detach and take photos or notes of the cables and accessories.
- Pack the TV: The TV will be wrapped in a layer of bubble wrap or moving blankets to provide an additional layer of protection. The TV will then be placed inside the TV Rental Box or Rental TV Tote Bag.
- Secure the TV: Your flat screen TV or monitor has been appropriately packed and can be secured within the moving truck for travel. We will always keep your TV in the upright position and avoid putting any pressure on the front of the screen.
The Rental TV Box and Rental TV Tote Bag are considered Rental Equipment due to the short duration of moving services. Professional Movers.com retrieves Rental Equipment after each local or office move for a number of reasons:
Some packing materials are RENTAL ITEMS and need to be returned in order to avoid additional rental fees. By returning the Rental TV Box or Tote Bag promptly after your move, you can avoid any additional charges that may accrue if the products are not returned on time. Additionally, returning these products allows Professional Movers.com to properly maintain and sanitize them for future use. This ensures that the products are in good condition and ready to be rented out to other customers who may need them for their own moves. Proper cleaning and maintenance is important not only for the longevity of the products, but also for the health and safety of our customers. By returning the Rental TV Box and Rental TV Tote Bag after each use, you’re helping us maintain a high standard of cleanliness and safety for all of our customers.
Flat Screen TV Packing for My Office
Packing your flat screen TVs properly is essential when it comes to office moves, as these devices are often expensive and could contain important data that needs to be protected during the move. Professional Movers.com recommends several methods for packing flat screen TVs during office moves, including the Rental TV Box, Rental TV Tote Bag, as well as the Mobile Flat Panel TV Case.
The Rental TV Box and Rental TV Tote Bag are two rental options that Professional Movers.com recommends for packing and transporting flat screen TVs during office moves. These options are similar to those used for local residential moves, but may be better suited for larger TVs and monitors found in office environments. The Rental TV Box and Rental TV Tote Bag are both designed to provide an extra layer of protection during transport and can help prevent scratches, dings, and other damage that can occur during a move.
Mobile Flat Panel TV Case
The Mobile Flat Panel TV Case is another option that Professional Movers.com recommends for office moves. This case is specifically designed for flat screen TVs and monitors that are up to 52 inches in size. The case includes a hard-shell exterior that provides maximum protection during transport, as well as a foam interior that keeps your TV or monitor upright securely in place. The case also includes wheels and a retractable handle for easy transport, making it an ideal choice for larger office moves.
In addition to protecting your electronics, packing your flat screen TVs also helps ensure that important data and files are not lost or damaged during the move. Many conference TVs and IT monitors are connected to computers or other devices that contain sensitive information, and it’s important to make sure that this information is protected during the move. Proper packing and transport can help prevent data loss or damage, which can be critical for businesses that rely on this information to operate.
Flat Screen TV Packing for Long Distance Moves
Packing your flat screen TVs and monitors properly is even more important when it comes to long-distance moves, as these moves can involve a lot of jostling and jarring during transport. Professional Movers.com recommends two additional methods for packing flat screen TVs during long-distance moves if you do not have the original box: The Flat Screen TV Moving System and Custom Crating Services.
The Flat Screen TV Moving System
The Flat Screen TV Moving System is a specialized solution that’s designed specifically for flat screen TVs and monitors going long-distance. This system includes a custom-made, high-strength corrugated box that’s designed to fit your specific TV or monitor. The box includes foam inserts that protect the electronics during transport, and it’s designed to provide maximum shock absorption during transport. The Flat Screen TV Moving System also includes handles on the sides for easy lifting and carrying, and it’s designed to stack securely with other boxes for efficient packing and moving. Each Flat Screen TV Moving System Box is custom built by Professional Movers.com to securely fit the dimensions of the screen as seen in the video above.
Custom Crating Services
Custom Crating Services are another option that we recommend for long-distance moves. This option involves building a custom crate that’s designed specifically for your flat screen TV or monitor. The crate is built to your exact specifications, and it includes foam inserts that provide maximum protection during transport. Custom crating services are ideal for larger TVs and monitors, as well as for TVs and monitors that have irregular shapes or sizes.
