Defrost refrigerators at least 24 hours ahead of time. Remove and pack all shelves and drawers separately. Clean and pack ovens, all racks, knobs, and grills separately. Washers and dryers should have their hoses removed and packed by themselves — with the dryer's drum properly secured.

Shipping a 55-inch TV costs anywhere from $100 to over $300+, depending heavily on distance, carrier (UPS, FedEx, USPS), speed, weight (30-70 lbs), and how well you pack it, with professional packing adding significant cost, but DIY packing using specific TV boxes and foam essential for safe delivery. Expect higher rates for faster shipping or longer distances, with specialized freight or blanket services potentially cheaper for very long hauls, but requiring more effort.
