How to Move a CPAP Machine

A CPAP machine is small enough to pack in minutes, but the details matter: an emptied humidifier, a case that travels in your own bag, and a plan for night one at the new place.

Pro tip: Label the travel case as an overnight bag, not for the truck, in plain sight, since it is small enough to get grabbed and boxed with other bedroom items by mistake.

Watch out: Never pack a CPAP with water still in the humidifier chamber; a leak inside the case during transport can damage the machine's internal electronics.
