Pro-Tips For Moving Your Home Theater
/
The home theater is the pride and joy of many homeowners. We all like to enjoy high-quality entertainment in the comfort of our homes. This becomes an issue when we decide to move to a new home. Moving a home theater system can be tough as you can damage your electronic equipment. This is why you’ll need good preparation, careful packing, and reliable movers if you want to transport your home theater without stress. In this latest blog we will discuss how to safely move your home theater system and keep your precious electronics intact for your new home.
Pack carefully
The most important part of moving a home theater system is packing it right. Don’t be afraid to spend a lot of time packing your equipment! It’s better to be extra careful then to end up damaging your expensive A/V system. So, when you’re preparing your home cinema for transport you’ll need to do a lot of things!
* Pro Tip *
When you are taking your system apart to pack it, we recommend photographing the system while it is assembled and labeling the wires so that you will have an idea of how it goes back together when you arrive at your new home.
Get the right materials
If you have good packing materials, you are halfway there! To make your packing more durable, and your items safer, you’ll need to get good packing equipment.
boxes – the most important and obvious of packing materials. Get various shapes of them to accommodate all the different pieces of your equipment. Even though they’re mentioned first, you should wrap your items for additional protection before placing them in boxes.
protective wrapping – whether you opt for plastic or cardboard, you’ll still need to wrap your items in something before you place them in boxes. The safest option is to use both.
cotton – it’s good to have some old clothes or traditional moving blankets that you can use for packing when you’re moving a home theater system. Cotton won’t scratch any screen so you can use it for an additional layer of protection.
********* It is very important to note that packing peanuts are not good for electronics! Styrofoam forms that your devices originally came in are perfect if you kept the packaging, but packing peanuts can damage electronics and should not be used to cushion them if they are not first wrapped completely! *********
Moving the TV
Dealing with your delicate displays. If you didn't keep the original packaging or hire a mover, the recommended method is going to be to wrap them up gently and move them in your automobile. Remember, we do professional install if you need: https://www.stlavtech.com/tv-installations
