Ship a Record Player

Use this page to help in preparing a record player, turntable or phonograph for shipment to be serviced. You may wish to Print this page and refer to it as you prepare your unit.

	Place Small or loose parts in bags.
	Remove *loose* tubes if applicable from chassis and pack tubes wrapped in newspaper in a second carton.
	If your record player has a floating deck (mounted on springs) you will need to secure the deck down (firm) by using the shipping screws provided by the manufacturer of the record player. Turning Clockwise will allow the deck to float free and be "bouncy".
	Turning these deck screws Counter Clockwise will allow the screws to rise up and secure the deck down, causing the deck to be firm and " Not Bouncy" This is how you want the deck to be before shipping
	For models without these screws provided by the manufacture, use any method you can think of to secure the deck from bouncing during shipment. Most all shippers will toss boxes and handle them pretty roughly, not to mention riding down the highway at 65 mph. A floating deck not secured down could be damaged.
	Secure the tone arm to the tone arm holder. Every model is different in how this is done. Some have their own clip provided by the manufacturer.
	Place the needle guard on the needle if you have one or if applicable.
	If your Tone arm has a balancing weight at the rear of the arm, place some bubble wrap under the weight to help support the weight during shipment. Do Not Over Do It, you just need to help support it.
	Wrap your equipment in plastic bags to keep packing materials from entering chassis. Important!
	Choose a box large enough to allow at least two inches of packing on all sides of equipment, including top and bottom.
	Foam packing peanuts are recommended, but you may use bubble wrap, shredded paper or wadded newspaper.
	For extra security, Double Box!
	Insure your equipment for a minimum of $300.00
	Include you name, mailing address, E-mail address and phone number inside the carton. Please, we are not investigators or detectives!
