Default How would you prepare a turntable for moving across the country?

Are you supposed to remove the tonearm or anything similar?

I move a lot, maybe twice a year. This is the reason I haven't gotten my first turntable yet. I don't know how to set one up (but I'll be too far for the guy who sold it to me to service), and I'm afraid of destroying it in a move.

You follow the installation manual in reverse and put it back in its original box. Typically, the platter, the tone arm, the cartridge it all has to come off. Also depending on the design, the suspension has to be locked. It may sound complicated but it is not. And if you move a lot, you will become an expert at it.
