Safe Way To Transport LPs


I'm moving to Arizona from Michigan the first week of July, and am wondering about the best way to transport my LP collection.  I can't imagine the records surviving 4-5 days in a moving truck in the summer desert heat.  Maybe overnight the boxes through UPS or FedEx?

The plastic corrugated boxes (white with black lids) from Bags Unlimited are the ticket. They’ll hold 50-60 albums each and can be safely stacked 3-4 boxes high. I used blue painters tape to seal them and it makes for easy removal. Assuming your mover will be using a 53’ tractor trailer try and be present for the loading of the truck. Otherwise they will/can potentially stack the record boxes floor to ceiling to minimize the taking of space.
