Moving PC Interstate
I am moving from Brisbane to Perth and want to ship over my PC. I am looking for advice from anyone else who has done this? It is too far to drive so I will be flying. I watched a few videos on how to pack the PC safely for shipping and the main advice was to remove large parts like the GPU and tower cooler (I got a xfx 9070xt and a thermalright PA so I will be doing this regardless) and then pack it back in the original box the case came in. The trouble is I do not have this box or packaging and I am finding it quite tricky to find a box that is the right size. I have a lian li lancool 216rw for reference.
I got a quote from pack and send who want to charge $300 which seems quite expensive but includes warranty. On the other hand, if I can pack it myself I can pay for that cover as well and I imagine it would still be substantially cheaper.
Any advice on finding a box that is the right size? I tried computer alliance but they said they don't have spare case boxes because they ship them all to customers.
The other alternative could be to just disassemble the whole thing and take/ship all the parts in their packaging (which I have for at least the GPU, cooler and mobo) and then just get a new case when I move.
Cheers!
