No bs Youtube influencer dialogue, just straight how-to video. Thank you.

This guys is the greatest packer in the world… someone said “lotta tape”, it’s worth protecting my 65” TV 💯🙏🏼

Great video, transported 2 TV's using this method damage free. Thank you!

Last time I drove a tv in the back seat of my car no box and was terrified I am moving again and looked up this video. Very resourceful and smart thanks will be doing this next week

This makes me wish I kept the box and packaging for my flat screen TV.

Nicely done, it's great for any TV about 50" or smaller and weighing less than 50 lbs, but I'd be concerned that there's no way most people could do this by themselves on a modern flat screen bigger than 60" weighing anywhere from 70-120 lbs with only narrow edges that you can't just grab onto and get hold of. I've moved small TVs like this the same way without much problem, but I don't know how anyone could carefully do this on their own with today's super thin and super fragile big screen OLEDs that can scratch, crack, or bend easily, and they're way more unwieldy to deal with than this older LCD unit. People don't even have the arm span to grab the sides of a 65" TV on their own, much less grab and lift. It's like hoisting a heavy pane of glass without letting go and watching it break, or without damaging the screen finish or the display panel itself. Most product packaging says to never move those big screens by yourself, and any install crew is always a minimum of two guys to lift from both sides. Sometimes there's even a third guy to help guide it onto a wall mount and secure it. And I also have doubts whether typical movers would be as cautious as you are if tasked with removing a big screen from the wall and packing it so thoughtfully. Today's huge displays nearly demand a professional install crew who specializes in moving super large screens.

Now show a 65" where half the TV is less than 0.2" thick...

It’s either a large box or medium box & a moving blanket and lots of packing tape. Now if you want to be really nice to your movers, get a vinyl bag or two old sheets on your mattress, throw a ratchet strap around both short ends of your mattress, pull til snug, not tight and they will have handles and not damage your mattress as easy, also invest in some foam noodles from dollar tree to protect door ways from getting banged up. Good luck on your moves everyone!

That is smart and beautiful. Well done! Thanks for the video tutorial.

This is the best video I’ve ever seen on YouTube.

Thank you, you are the true hero.

This guy knows how to tape
-
Just what I needed
-
Bloody Brilliant!
-
That's a lot of tape Ivan!
-
What size box is that?
-
I would highly recommend bubble wrap if you can
-
Or buy the box with handles at Home Depot especially designed for transporting, and you can always reuse it again. Plus you'll always know which side is up. Eh I'm smarter haha. Like my brother wanting to keep using an axe or screw driver and I pull out my cordless tools.

FYI you should never lay your tv down on its face, other than that it’s well protected. I suggest laying it down on its back and folding it around the tv, same with the box lay down the cardboard & place the tv on the cardboard on its back and wrap the cardboard around it

You should have oriented the tv so that the blanket's folds are on the screen side; more padding for the glass front.
