Really basic moving/packing question

I'm moving and putting all my stuff into store for a couple of months. Do I need to wrap EVERYTHING? eg can I just leave the telly as it is?

Also, bigger bits, like vacuum cleaners - can I just shove a bin bag over them?

I wouldn’t leave the telly as is in case it topples and breaks but I would just chuck a bin bag over a hoover, ironing board etc or two if needed due to size.

TV I would wrap in a duvet or similar as a minimum. Unbreakable things I wouldn't bother wrapping.

On our last (international) move everything had to be wrapped in plastic/reinforced paper. They had special bags for sofas, cases for TVs, mattress bags... It took hours. But that was for a shipping container.
