Default Can you transport a Washing machine on its side?

We need a new washing machine and can get good deals at the Sears
scratch and dent. I mean it could be really dented and who cares, its
in the basement.

But it seems that new washing machines may have some sort of drum lock
that you remove after instalation. If it has one, well if there is
lock for upright shipping what about no lock transported on it side.

Oh and of course the reason is we can transport it on its side ways
but not upright in my wife Vue.


Sears will deliver


They may not deliver scratch & dent...at least not for free.

I was in HD today and noticed a floor model washer and dryer set on sale
for 25% off. In the fine print it said that "free delivery" and "haul
away" do not apply to clearance items.

Delivery & disposal charges will eat into the savings experienced by
buying scratch & dent or clearance items.
