If you're just moving a relatively short distance by car, you can just build the PC and move it with you intact.\r\n\r\nIf you're going to be on a flight or will be shipping your things via courier, then it might be a good idea to partially disassemble the PC or add some [PC packing foam](https://www.amazon.com/Instapak-Quick-Packing-Shipping-Solution/dp/B01BU5VXVS/ref=asc_df_B01BU5VXVS/?tag=hyprod-20\u0026amp;linkCode=df0\u0026amp;hvadid=167124288646\u0026amp;hvpos=\u0026amp;hvnetw=g\u0026amp;hvrand=5751379084638109643\u0026amp;hvpone=\u0026amp;hvptwo=\u0026amp;hvqmt=\u0026amp;hvdev=m\u0026amp;hvdvcmdl=\u0026amp;hvlocint=\u0026amp;hvlocphy=9021484\u0026amp;hvtargid=pla-306992091347\u0026amp;psc=1) in the case while moving.","subreddit_name":"buildapc","author":"kjm015"},{"body":"If he let them package it, it's probably their fault then.\r\n \r\nOn the subject of the expanding packing materials like Instapak, they are generally sold in bulk but you can find [single ones for sale on Amazon.](https://www.amazon.com/Instapak-Quick-Packing-Shipping-Solution/dp/B01BU5VXVS)","subreddit_name":"pcmasterrace","author":"SirGeorgington"},{"body":"If it can't fit in the cab, then make sure you take out the graphics card and hard drives at the very least. You can fill the insides with [these instapaks](https://www.amazon.com/Instapak-Quick-Packing-Shipping-Solution/dp/B01BU5VXVS?th=1) to protect components, and box/bubble wrap the PC to protect it even more. Make sure it's tied down properly and seal it up so it doesn't get moisture. Like I said, the cab is preferable, and possibly consider if you can do what you want to do on your PC on a laptop if you're only gone for three weeks.","subreddit_name":"buildapc","author":"airsoftingbee"},{"body":"https://www.amazon.com/Instapak-Quick-Packing-Shipping-Solution/dp/B01BU5VXVS\r\n\r\nEven the dumbest bear can move a PC with zero issue with this stuff.

I'm not in the US but found [this on US Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Instapak-Quick-Packing-Shipping-Solution/dp/B01BU5VXVS). Either this or something similar.

Well, no matter how you ship it, there's no guarantees that it won't be mishandled.  I would be tempted to disassemble it and ship the parts instead of the whole thing, but if you want to ship it as-is, I would start with those Instapak expanding foam inserts - you can put them inside the case to hold the GPU and other components in place.  Wrap the whole thing is as much foam/bubble wrap as possible and mark the box \"fragile\" for the benefit of the shippers or airline or whatever. \r\n\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Instapak-Quick-Packing-Shipping-Solution/dp/B01BU5VXVS/\r\n\r\nIt's almost certainly going to have to be checked baggage as it won't fit as a carryon unless it's a SFF PC or something.","subreddit_name":"computers","author":"double-float"},{"body":"yeah, we used that at work a lot.
