I'm moving across the US and have a couple of pins the movers will be transporting. I'm thinking I should take the playfield glass out of each and cover the playfield with shrinkwrap, so I don't end up with a cabinet filled with tiny pieces of glass, if it were to break. Thoughts? More importantly, what is the best way to transport the backglasses? Just leave them in the head, bubble/shrinkwrap around them? I fear the truck vibration will shatter them, if left in the head. Should they go in separate boxes? What is the best way to transport? Thanks, in advance, for any advice!

Quoted from jgreene:

Put a towel or moving blanket under the head when you fold it. Then shrink wrap the folded head to the body. Pull the legs and ship them standing up on end.

Those are all GREAT tips - Thanks! I will use ALL your advice. Thanks!!
