This orientation places the full weight of the appliance on the door and control panel, which is not ideal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A dryer laying face down is unstable because the door will not allow it to lay flush, and this is likely to cause the machine to tip onto the control panel. The control panel is very sensitive and will be damaged easily if it is bumped too hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dryer door itself is likely to sustain damage in this orientation as well. The weight of the dryer resting on the door can damage the glass viewport on the door, and if the weight of the dryer shifts while in transit, it may harm the door hinges as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, laying a dryer face down is not a good option when in transit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lay the Dryer on Its Side for Transport<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If a dryer can not be transported upright, for whatever logistical reason,<strong> the next best option is to lay the dryer on its side for transit.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Laying a dryer on its side will cause the least damage to the appliance. This orientation preserves the internal workings of the dryer and does not put unnecessary strain or pressure on any of its components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The side of a dryer allows the machine to lay flat, which means that it is less likely to be severely jostled when moving, and all of the internal bracings will remain intact. This will prevent the drying from being damaged during transportation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only consideration to make when moving a dryer while laying on its side is that the external casing of the machine may sustain scratches, dings, dents, scrapes, or other cosmetic damage, especially if the machine is being transported without a box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box.jpg\" alt=\"A dryer with scratches because of transporting it on its sides, shipping bolt, and a dryer inside a box\" class=\"wp-image-33933\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box-960x700.jpg 960w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box-150x109.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box.jpg.webp\" alt=\"A dryer with scratches because of transporting it on its sides, shipping bolt, and a dryer inside a box\" class=\"wp-image-33933 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box-300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box-768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box-960x700.jpg.webp 960w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box-150x109.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/A-dryer-with-scratches-because-of-transporting-it-on-its-sides-shipping-bolt-and-a-dryer-inside-a-box.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-5\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For this reason, it is important to provide the dryer with protective padding when laying it on its side.
