Shipping Electronics from San Jose to Seattle via Ocean Freight

When shipping a TV, pack in an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in Soft foam, and brace all voids so the unit cannot move. Keep the TV standing upright, clearly mark the box with “This Side Up” and “Fragile – Electronics,” and Avoid exposure to rain or damp areas since the internal Electronics are moisture sensitive.
