Tips on Packing Appliances for a Move
Instructions
- 1 Bring in a professional if necessary. If you're not knowledgeable about unplugging and uninstalling ovens, washer-dryers, dishwashers, home theaters, computer systems and other appliances, call a professional for help.
2 Unplug the refrigerator at least two days before the move. This will give you enough time to remove the contents, clean and dry the interior and defrost and dry the freezer if necessary.
3 Secure the electrical cord of each appliance. Roll or fold the cord into a small bundle and secure with a twist tie or adhesive tape, then tape the bundle onto the back of the appliance to prevent it from getting in the way of your packing. Use blue painter's tape, because it will be easy to remove when you unpack. Heavy-duty packing tape will provide a more secure hold, but may be more difficult to take off.
4 Tape or tie down movable parts. Tape down all appliance doors. If your microwave has a carousel, tape it down or wrap it in bubble wrap, then cushion it inside the microwave with dishtowels, tablecloths or bath towels. Secure the loose items of your rotisserie and grill. Pack them separately if necessary (but label them clearly to avoid getting misplaced).
5 Pack electronics securely, preferably in their original packaging. Remove CDs, DVDs and flash drives and shut down computers properly.
6 Wrap major appliances like TVs and washer-dryers with moving pads or blankets and secure with heavy-duty tape, cord or rope.
7 Wrap small appliances and electronics individually with bubble wrap and pack together in big heavy-duty boxes or cartons, cushion-filled with crumpled newspaper or foam peanuts.
8 Label all boxes with a list of the contents and the destination room in the new house. Attach a big and colorful "FRAGILE" label on each box or appliance.
