A:Answer Transporting your Insignia™ 13.8 Cu. Ft. Garage Ready Convertible Upright Freezer on its back or side is not recommended. Doing so can cause the compressor oil to flow into the cooling lines, which can damage the freezer and affect its performance. For the safest transport, it's best to keep the freezer upright. If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask! -Ed | Insignia Support | https://www.bestbuy.com/site/brands/best-buy-brands/pcmcat1596746025285.c?id=pcmcat1596746025285
