I have a compact fridge for my daughters dorm room and I am not sure if I can lay it down while transporting it. It is made by Emerson. I know full size refrigerators can be laid down and they just need to be stood up-right for an hour or so before it is turned on. I didn't know if the compressors were different on compact models. :confused:

Thanks richappy...I ended up being able to stand it up in the back of my pick up anyway. If it had rained I would have had to lay the fridge down so I could cover my daughters things that we were bringing up to her college dorm. Thanks again!
