This is in relation to my last post, and will be a quick tip. Do not lay your fridge down on its back or side. Laying a fridge down doesn't necessarily damage the fridge. Most fridge's will do just fine AFTER being upright and OFF for 24-48 hours after being laid down. However, this could potentially shorten the life of your fridge. It's just best not to lay down your fridge.
Inside the coils of your fridge is freon and oil. The oil is there to lubricate the compressor. If your fridge is laid down, the oil runs out of the compressor and into the maze of coils of the fridge. Imagine draining all your oil from your car's engine, and starting it up.
And that's our Quick Tip.

Really good information. Always see people doing this at Lowes or Home Depot when they're buying a new one.
