Household appliances is a truly large category of things, which influences what's the best means to secure them for transportation as well as the best method of transporting them. We can roughly arrange household devices into 2 subcategories, each with its own best way of shipment – minor household appliances as well as large household appliances. In the first subgroup you will find every device that could easily fit into a passenger car, for example: microwaves, mixers, food processors, toasters, boiling pots as well as many more. These things you could effortlessly ship in your own car – no matter if it’s on one of the seats or in the trunk. They are also less prone to damages during transportation than the large household appliances. In the big household devices subsection you’ll come across machines like: fridges, washers, washing machines, tumble-dryers as well as many more. None of them may be safely transported inside a regular vehicle and therefore ought to be entrusted to experts.

Regardless of which household device you have to transport, when it comes to securing your cargo for the time of shipment, there are a few rules that can be used with every item. Firstly, it is best to transport appliances in their original boxes. These boxes are best fitted to the dimensions of the device which can help to lessen the threat of some shocks on the road damaging your cargo. To be very , you should fill all the empty spaces with foam chips or bubble foil. With minor household appliances, following these rules should be enough to guarantee their painless journey. However for big household appliances there are a couple more rules to have in mind.

Before you even begin to secure your appliances for the shipment, you need to remove all the removable parts and ship them separately. That concerns all the shelves and drawers (from freezers, mainly) and racks (from dishwashers). When on the road, they are especially unprotected against jolts, which can damage either them or the device itself. That is why it is better to take them out of the device, enclose them in layers of bubble wrap and transport individually.

The next step is to secure the doors and all the cables and tubing. Check if your appliance is dry, because any leaking on the road could damage it for good. If you are transporting a washing machine, it is best to secure the drum, so that it cannot move during shipment. The drum is the most fragile element of the washing machine and also an important one – harming the drum may mean that you will need a new washing machine. The next point is, as mentioned above, securing the doors. Even if you are positive that the doors won’t open during shipment, you should still put some tape on it to be certain it really cannot open on the road. There are some situations on the road that can demand a driver to unexpectedly turn or stop the vehicle and you ought to be positive that the devices won’t open even then. Doors that are not properly secured are easily breakable because the hinges are often quite fragile. When the doors are closed safely, you have to consider cords and water lines. They should stay attached to the appliance (especially if you have no expert knowledge about household appliances assembly), but you might want to bind them together (for example with some cord) to keep them from getting tangled.

After the doors and cords of your appliances are secured, the next step is to shield your load from dents and scratches. That means chiefly wrapping the corners as well as fragile parts with some bubble
