I am curious about shipping Victorian floor wheels?
would they be better to be crated and shipped on back or upright?
how well do the mechanisms fix inside the cases, worried if anything came loose and smashed the glass.
Anybody shipped a floor wheel long distance?

Thanks for any help!

By all means - DO NOT ship a Victorian Upright in any other fashion, than standing Upright.
Depending on how far you are shipping it, can make a difference. If it is going overseas, then
the best way, is to have it professionally crated. If local, blanket-wrap, in a moving van. But
the later should only be done by a professional, that is qualified to handle fragile antiques.
Sadly, there are those that cannot move a crated item across town, without destroying it.
