Is it possible to send the TV by a transport company. How to transport a plasma TV. Reasons to contact YouDo performers

How to send items transport company, which transport companies exist in Russia, it was written earlier. Now I will describe in detail how to pack things before shipping.

Most transport companies provide a variety of packing services. A company that respects customers, in addition to the list of services, also indicates their cost. Examples of such companies: RATEK, Baikal-Service. You can read about Ratek, and about Baikal-Service.

If any of the transport companies did not indicate their cost in the list of services for packing goods and things, then the rates presented on the websites of Ratek and Baikal-Service will be an approximate guide for you.

Packing things yourself

When packing things, you need to remember that if, during transportation from a branch to a branch, the cargo in a truck is in relative safety (we exclude an emergency on the road), because things are on a pallet (pallet) allocated for them, then during transportation from the branch to the doorstep, if you ordered such a service, they are reloaded into another vehicle without the use of auxiliary loaders-cars, they are removed from the pallet manually. Here big role plays the human factor. Unfortunately, if fragile things are damaged, you will not be able to make a claim against the transport company, because. the items were packed by you yourself, you refused the services of the transport company, which will be indicated in the bill of lading.

Household appliances are packed for transportation. It is on a pallet.

Therefore, when sending fragile items, household appliances, packed independently, it is advisable to deliver them to the branch of the transport company and pick them up after the truck arrives at the required branch, where they will be on the shipping pallet.

In addition to household appliances and things, trucking companies can send food, vegetables, fruits. It is quite enough to send potatoes in bags in the warm season. For this, any bags, both fabric and polypropylene, are suitable.

Polypropylene bag

hard box

It is not recommended to send glass jars with blanks, jam, honey, etc., fragile things without rigid packaging. It can be wooden, plywood boxes, fiberboard boxes. In the box, jars and fragile items must be additionally packed in bubble wrap or overlay with shock-absorbing things. On the box, make a warning inscription “Caution! Glass!" This inscription will not increase the cost of the tariff, but it may well affect the actions of loaders.

If you send clothes, especially when there are a lot of them, then vacuum bags make things easier. It is necessary to tell about them in more detail, because. with their help it is convenient not only to transport clothes and underwear by a transport company, but also to compactly pack a suitcase for a trip. The vacuum bag has a double zip fastener on the side, which must be carefully closed after putting things into the bag.

open valve

There is also a valve for sucking air out of the bag with a vacuum cleaner. The valve opening is closed with a screw plug after the air is sucked out.

Below are photos with things packed in a bag before and after air is sucked out of it. The height of the bag has been halved compared to its original size.

Air suction with a vacuum cleaner After air extraction

If you pack in a vacuum bag on your own, without helpers, then crush things in the bag with your feet on the floor, while sucking the air with a vacuum cleaner.

Wrap cooked things in vacuum bags in fabric or stretch film, tie with twine or tape.

Corrugated box for packing things

Corrugated cardboard boxes are suitable for books, stationery, toys, cereals, nuts.

Services of transport companies for cargo packing

Transport companies offer all sorts of packing services. If you decide to use their packaging services, then make sure that they are noted on the consignment note, because. this will give you a reason to file a claim in case of damage to the goods.

Soft packing

Wrapping boxes on a pallet with stretch film.

It is desirable to order wrapping with stretch film when in large numbers boxes, bales. The figure clearly shows that in this form all the boxes will remain in place during transportation, upon receipt it will be convenient to count and unload them.

In stretch film, and even better in bubble wrap polyethylene film can pack upholstered or polished furniture, household appliances.

Upholstered furniture in bubble wrap

Bales, boxes, bags, pipes, household appliances on a pallet can be fixed with polypropylene tape.

A wide variety of polypropylene bags are available to customers in transport companies. different sizes. Things will be packed in a bag under a seal. Sealed packaging is recommended for sending digital equipment, mobile phones, cameras, video equipment, watches, radio components and small boxes.

In addition to bags, there are cardboard boxes glued with adhesive tape in the warehouse.

Rigid packaging

Motorcycles, bicycles, snowmobiles and other similar vehicles require rigid packaging, i.e. board framing. What it looks like is shown in the figure.

How many irreplaceable household appliances in your house? At least three: refrigerator, washing machine and TV. Or four - with a computer to boot? How about a vacuum cleaner microwave oven, DVD player?... All these things make our life interesting, comfortable and enjoyable. And we, in turn, want all our "electronic assistants" to work as long as possible. And therefore, when moving, we are especially careful and careful about household appliances.

How to deliver equipment to a new home without breaking or scratching anything along the way? The main rule is that household appliances must be transported in vertical position just like it is in your home. Reliable fastening to the car body is a must! Usually, the heaviest appliances (refrigerator, TV) are placed in the car first and they are well fixed with soft straps. If possible, it is better to order a separate machine for the equipment and ask a specialist to manage the loading.

Any devices are best transported in "native" boxes - in those in which it was purchased. When this is not possible, the most suitable container is taken. The box should not be too large - then the device will "hang" inside, and the packaging will not save it from damage. For the same reasons, it should not stick out of the box. In some cases, it is better to wrap the device with several layers of bubble wrap and transport it without a box at all.

How to transport a refrigerator? Lightweight and well secured. First of all, the refrigerator must be defrosted and clean. Remove shelves and drawers before transport. The refrigerator door must be secured so that it does not open during transport. To do this, you can take soft belts. To prevent the refrigerator from shifting during transportation, it can be fixed in the body with special stops and gaskets.

The refrigerator is transported in an upright position. If you lay it on its side, this can lead to breakage of the pipes and the violation of the fastening of the compressor to the frame. In addition, in the “lying” position, oil from the compressor may leak into the supercharger, and this will lead to equipment failure.

The packaging for the refrigerator can be corrugated cardboard, polystyrene or air bubble wrap. If you want to play it safe, you can combine several types of packaging. After transportation, do not immediately turn on the refrigerator in the network. It should "settle" for 4-6 hours.

The transportation of the TV also raises many questions. Here, too, has its own specifics. The TV must be transported in the same position in which you watch it at home. If this is not possible, never place it face down. It is better to place the TV along the body, turning the screen to the side. This is done for security purposes. If you put the TV screen in the direction of travel, any sharp maneuver (turn, braking) can end badly for the technique. The same goes for computer monitors.

The most “indestructible” are televisions and monitors with a kinescope (cathode ray tube). Them internal organization pretty hard to damage. When transporting such a TV, you need to follow the simplest safety measures - you need to protect the screen well and firmly fix the equipment in the back. But liquid crystal monitors and plasma panels are very sensitive. They are afraid of both shock and vibration.

Ideally, LCDs and plasma displays should be packaged for shipping in much the same way as they are packed at the factory. First, the device is wrapped in air bubble wrap, then placed in shock-absorbing foam and in a corrugated cardboard box. Transport companies operate in much the same way. By following their example, you will reduce the risk of possible damage. The larger the diagonal of the screen, the more carefully you need to handle the equipment.

When transporting a washing machine, precautions are also needed, although not as thorough. The most important thing is to fix the drum of the washing machine with special fixing bolts before loading. They must be included with the purchase. Hoses and couplings are best disconnected and put in a separate bag. To avoid damage, washing machine should be wrapped in bubble wrap.

You also need to transport the vacuum cleaner in a disassembled state: the unit itself is separate, hoses and brushes are separate. If you have in your house washing vacuum cleaner, make sure the water tank is empty.

The microwave oven must be wrapped in plastic wrap and placed in a box. If there is no film at hand, you can use a thick, dense cloth. On impact, the walls of the oven can be deformed, which is why it is so important to choose reliable packaging. protecting against possible damage.

It is better to transport a computer and a laptop in "native" boxes. Alternatively, the laptop can be transported in a special bag, additionally wrapped in shock-absorbing material. Before you pack the equipment, you need to disconnect all wires, mouse, keyboard from it. Follow to HDD was securely fastened inside system block computer. Upon impact, the hard drive may be permanently damaged.

Small household appliances such as hair dryers, kettles and mixers are best transported packed separately from each other. If you put all these items in a common box, they can collide on impact, which is not very good. Moreover, it is not recommended to put things of different weight categories together, such as irons and glass lamps.

Appliances with glass tanks must be wrapped in soft material- polyethylene film or thick cloth. Strong things without fragile elements can be wrapped with stretch film or wrapping paper. For safety reasons, it is better to disconnect the dangling parts in advance and remove the lamps from those devices where they are.

Small electronic devices such as cameras can be transported in special packages from air bubble film with antistatic additives. Such material does not allow static electricity to accumulate on the devices, in addition to absorbing vibration and protecting against shock.

Why do we recommend bubble wrap so strongly? Because she is truly unique. It can be called the most modern packaging material of all existing. It protects equipment from shocks, dampens vibrations well, protects from dust and dirt. The bubble wrap also prevents the accumulation of condensate. At the same time, it is easy to handle. You can wrap both a large TV and a small electric kettle in a sheet of bubble wrap. Yes, and bubble wrap is inexpensive, and this also matters. Fans of conservative methods can replace the bubble wrap with sheets of corrugated cardboard or containers made from this material.

The current settlers are lucky people. Some thirty years ago, transporting a TV set was a challenge. Boxes of ten kilograms could not be clasped. They didn't get into the elevators. Often the TVs slipped out of the hands of the movers and broke.

And even in a new house, mounted on a cabinet, TVs could fail. For example, from shocks during transportation, the sound was turned off. Or some microcircuits froze. Now it is much easier to transport a TV - even a wide plasma one. You can do it yourself. The main thing is to know a few rules.

Making a plan

Before ordering a truck and looking for volunteers, make a plan of action. Where and from where will you take things? Is the road far? If you want to save money and order a back-to-back van, measure the diagonal of the TV. Check if it will pass through doors and corridors. Will it hit the corners? Fit in an elevator?

Packing

Now we need to do some packing. Look for bubble wrap, large cardboard box and tape. Wrap the TV with film, put it in a box and seal it. Well, if there are fasteners inside the van - they can fix the plasma "in the rack" - so it does not hit the walls of the truck when moving.

Under the Soviets, when packaging film and scotch tape were seen only in magazines, fragile things were wrapped in blankets. It was risky - TVs and mirrors slipped, fell and broke. If you don't want to spend money, you can wrap the TV in a non-slip blanket and tie it with twine - but it's safer to do it right in the van.

Be careful when carrying!

When all doorways are measured and the car is ordered, think about safety. Check if the cables are pulled out, collect them in a separate box. This will come in handy during the packing of the TV (nothing will be tangled in the legs), and after transportation (all the wires will be quickly found).

If you're wrapping your TV in a blanket, look for one that's thick and non-slip. You can work directly in the van, so that after that you do not have to drag the structure to the car. Lay the blanket next to the plasma, lay the TV in the middle, as you put the filling in a pie. And now we make an envelope - we close the screen with a blanket from all sides. You can fasten with a rope or tape.

Everything is easier with a box. Raise the TV - preferably with two people - and insert it into the box. Rewind the box with tape and carry it to the car. The main thing - do not lay the TV flat: you risk damaging the screen. If you need to put the TV down, put it with the screen up - to do this, mark the fragile side on the box with a marker.

We put the TV in a new place

When the TV is transported, the most interesting comes. The plasma must be carefully unpacked and installed. First you have to cut the tape - better with a cutter, but it will do sharp knife. Now let's remove the box. Lift the TV and slowly, centimeter by centimeter, remove it. Unroll the film if there is one.
