Electronics

Due to their sensitive nature, your electronics may need special attention before they can be transported safely.

Home Computer

• For specific questions on protecting the hard drive call your authorized dealer.

• Disconnect all wires

• You may want to pack it in the original packing containers, if available. If not, make sure all components are packaged by the van line.

• At the new residence, allow the system to warm to room temperature.

• Your cargo coverage does not cover the transport of diskettes or tapes. We recommend you transport these items separately.

Satellite Dish

Contact an electrician or dealer to disassemble and reassemble.

• Your carrier will charge a special handling/shipment fee, which requires authorization from your Planes Counselor according to your company policy.

Stereo Equipment

• Original packing containers are recommended, if available.

• Disconnect all wires and mark them accordingly.

• At your new residence, allow all components to adjust to room temperature (approximately 24 hours)

Television

• No special packaging required for most models.

• Smaller models may be packed if safer for transporting.

• Big/wide screen televisions may need crating and need 24 hours to adjust to room temperature before connection at destination.

• Plasma televisions require crating for safe transport. Please advise your Planes Counselor in advance of pack day that you have this specialty item.

Microwave Oven

• Remove and pack all glass trays separately.

• Clean thoroughly (especially important if shipment goes to storage).

Ceiling Fan/Chandelier

Prior to move an electrician must disconnect the fixtures.

• These fixtures will need special packaging.

• Ask your Planes Counselor about scheduling service at origin and destination.

Copiers/Printers

• Contact your dealer or manufacturer for instructions on how to prepare for a move.

• It is your responsibility to remove all toner cartridges. The carrier does not remove toner cartridges, and damages caused by toner spillage are not covered under the transit policy.
