A purpose-made television carton replaces it. The same idea works for monitors, receivers, game consoles and desktop computers: a snug carton, soft material on every face, and a plan for the cables. ## At a glance - Upright carriage for flat-screen TVs - Cables bagged and labeled before unplugging - Soft cushioning on screens, never newspaper ink - Boxes and wrap sold at 2277 Glendale Ave, Sparks ## What the carton is for A TV carton is a tall, flat, stiff box, sized to a range of screen widths. It is meant to hold a screen on its edge, with cushioning around the frame and a firm wall on the front and back. Computer monitors, large framed displays and similar thin electronics fit the same carton style. Smaller electronics such as game consoles, routers and receivers go in a sturdy medium box, cushioned with paper or wrap. ## Before you pack: photos and cables Take a quick photo of the back of the television and the connected devices before you unplug anything. That photo is your wiring diagram for the new room. Then bag the cables and remotes for each device, label the bag with the device name, and tape the bag to the back of the matching device or put it in the same box. ## How to pack a flat screen Wipe the screen with a dry microfiber cloth first, because grit trapped under wrap can scratch it. - Remove the stand or wall mount and keep the screws in a labeled bag. - Cover the screen with a clean sheet of soft paper, then wrap the whole set in a pad or bubble wrap, with extra at the corners. - Slide the set into the carton on its edge, never flat on its face. - Fill any gap with soft padding so the screen cannot rock. - Tape the carton shut, write TV and FRAGILE on two sides, and mark THIS SIDE UP. - Carry it upright, with two people for large sets. ## Boxes for the rest of the shelf Consoles, speakers and receivers pack well in a [medium box](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/packing/moving-boxes-and-supplies/medium-and-large-boxes/) with paper or [bubble wrap](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/packing/moving-boxes-and-supplies/bubble-wrap/) around each unit.

The longer TV guide is [how to pack a TV](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/guides/how-to-pack-a-tv/). A television that is mounted on the wall, or stands on a tall unit, is also safer when it is anchored in the new home. The Consumer Product Safety Commission's Anchor It campaign explains how. ## Getting supplies, and the free boxes The O'Brien's office at 2277 Glendale Ave in Sparks carries a full line of regular and specialty boxes, packing wrap or padding, and tape, from Monday to Friday, 8 am to 5 pm.

A purpose-made TV carton from a supply counter does the same job when it is padded and sealed. ### How do I keep the cables organized? Photograph the connections, then bag each device's cables and label the bag with the device name. ### Does O'Brien's sell TV boxes? Boxes and wrapping supplies are sold at the Sparks office, and 10 free heavy-duty boxes come with the in-home estimate. ## 4.3 stars from 71 Google reviews What customers say about O'Brien's [Read more reviews](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/reviews/)[See them on Google](https://maps.google.com/maps?cid=17335326057105140938) L Laurie I. September 28, 2025 The two employees showed up on time and were very polite and ready to work. Our quote was 8 hours and they finished in 5 hours. Office staff checked in prior to move and confirmed all details and check in after move to make sure everything was taken care of. Would use this company again for sure! ### Owner's reply Laurie, Thank you for the awesome review! We are glad to hear everything went smoothly, and you were satisfied with the service. We want to also thank you for your business we appreciate you! N Nicole B. June 25, 2025 The crew worked extremely hard and treated our belongings with care. Customer service was outstanding leading up to, during, and after move. Thank you! S Sonia P. August 4, 2023 Talk about organized people. I peeked in the truck about an hour into the job and was amazed at how well organized it was and how many of my things had protective coverings. Our bed is a mechanical one and a nightmare to us, but these guys had no issue with it at all. Although I have no desire to ever move again--but if I did, I would be calling these guys for sure!!! ## Get your free, in-home moving estimate An estimator visits, walks through everything and gives you a written, itemized estimate.
