Our number 1 tip for shipping flat screen TV's and other electronics is to use the original box, then wrap the original box, and place in a 2nd larger box for added protection.  Below are some detailed tips from FedEx.

Basic Box-In-Box Packing Method

• Wrap product(s) individually with at least 2” thickness of Bubble Wrap® or foam material to fit snugly inside a corrugated box.
• Use a second, outer container that is at least 6” longer, wider and deeper than the inner box.
• Fill the bottom of the outer box with 2” to 3” of cushioning material.
• Place the inner box in the centre of the outer box on top of the cushioning material.
• Fill voids on all sides with more cushioning material.
• Seal box.
