Hard-Shell Carrying Case for Transporting a Metal Detector
Hard-Shell Carrying Suitcase Provides Ultimate Protection & Safety for Metal Detector
While traveling by plain, train or bus, a Hard-Shell Carrying Case or Travel Suitcase is the best solution for transporting your metal detector and metal detecting gear.
Traditional rolling hard suitcases and wheeled hard-shells provide the ultimate in metal detector protection and solve the numerous problems of long walks through terminals and parking lots with your luggage.
I was a lucky one to purchase a vintage travel hard suitcase, made by Samsonite probably in 1960s, at the yard sale for just a $1! And it still had a key!

The travel case's interior is usually fully foam-padded, and there's enough room inside for a detector plus room for coils, headphones, accessories, outdoor clothing and gear, and small digging tools. A durable and reliable shockproof design would allow you to check the hard suitcase in the plain's cargo compartment and feel no worry about your gear safety.
Enough Room For Everything

If your suitcase does not have the padded interior, make sure you protect the most vital and vulnerable parts of your metal detector - control box and search coil, from accidental or excessive shocks. I usually wrap the detector's parts up with the bubble-wrap or thick cloths if I the former is not available. And I make sure any hard or sharp object, packed along with my metal detector in the suitcase, does not come into contact with a detector.
