For such long distance move it will be hard to keep smooth driving. I advise to fix the washer drum by special bolts... or put something in the gap between drum and housing to prevent its vibrations and shacking during bumpy road.

I would remove one panel (top for example) and put something in between drum and walls. One more tip: it is hard to remove all water from whasher. To keep your car dry put film and towel under the washer.

I was just going to stuff the basket with a large blanket to protect it. As for getting the unit in - we have a dog ramp that we bought to help one of our old dogs (she was very big, and infirm in her last year), so I’ll use the ramp. Our current dogs are even bigger, but they’re young!

Another my video (moray eel bite a fisherman) i expected very intersting with millions views in fact got those millions but it tool couple years before it got noticed. The promotion from other channels or youtube recommendation is what makes most of views. i value any amount of like and views because some my videos are complicated and require skills to understand and use. i.e. maybe it is small numbers but they are skilled and smart. Even if it will be only who like and need it then it counts as a win and not a waste.

Well, although he did it the very hard way, he did it. Within about 4 minutes I can load 2 top load washers standing up straight behind the front seats and load 2 dryers laying down sideways. No wood needed. Just tilt it sideways on the back of the van and easily push it up inside. If I wanted to haul front loaders like he has, I could stand all 4 right side up... tilt it to the back bumper, push, stand it up and then do the same thing over. Hell, he even makes the dolly part complicated. Just put the dolly under it and tilt it back. I do it every day delivering washers and dryers and make a profit of between $460-$900 for 2 sets delivered. Guy asks if he wants help and he says he is 'ok'. I don't think so buddy. And for the record... you can drive 200,000 miles with 2 sets in the back of a mini van and it will drive as smooth as a BMW. I know, because I've done it. I was rolling, especially watching you unload. 🤣 Great effort though.
