Moving a TV in Watford

A modern TV is thin, light for its size and fragile across its face. It fits through any door. What damages TVs is pressure on the screen and being laid flat, which lets the panel flex. They travel upright, ideally in their original box, and never with anything leaning on them.

Will it fit?

Will a 75 inch TV fit in the van?

Yes, standing upright. At about 1.7m wide it is a two-person carry on stairs, so the screen does not twist.

How we move it

  1. Box it if you kept the original box, or wrap it in a padded TV cover
  2. Carry and transport it upright, never flat
  3. Keep it on the side of the van with nothing leaning on the screen

Before we arrive

  • Take it off the wall bracket before the day, or have someone do it
  • Keep the stand, screws and remote together in one bag
  • Photograph the cables at the back before unplugging

Wall-mounted TVs

Taking a TV off a wall bracket and fitting a new bracket at the other end involves drilling into walls, which is a job for you or a handyman rather than a removals crew. Have it down and on its stand or in its box before we arrive and we will take it from there.

Moving a TV: questions

Do I need the original box?+

It helps but it is not essential. Without it, the TV goes in a padded cover and travels upright against the side of the van.

Will you take the TV off the wall?+

No, wall brackets need drilling and making good, which is a job for a handyman. Have it down before the day and we will move it.
