The Importance of the Original Box
If you kept the original packaging, use it. The custom-fit foam is designed to protect the screen's delicate corners. If you no longer have it, use a specialized TV moving box with heavy-duty padding.
The Golden Rules of Transit
Always keep the TV in an upright position. Laying a large flat-screen TV flat can cause the screen to flex under its own weight, leading to internal stress fractures. Wrap the screen in a soft moving blanket, secure it with shrink wrap, and ensure it is strapped firmly to the wall of your vehicle to prevent sliding.
