The plan is to sell them to put toward grandma's medical care. May I suggest that you auction them right here on FR?
To: John Robinson
If you are in California, to comply with the states transport laws, the guns should all be ;
1) Unloaded (no rounds in chamber or magazine)
2) In a container (soft or hard sided doesn’t matter)
3) Handguns must be in a locked container
The trunk of your car is considered a locked container, as long as it’s not accessible from the passenger compartment of the car.
To: John Robinson
Call me. Give me your address.
I will personally come take them off your hands and be safe and secure about it.

This incident has already been duly noted by agents of the NSA and the Dept. of Homeland Security.
Black Suburbans should be arriving at your location in 5, 4, 3...

Bad idea, unless you want to be meeting Mr. Holders friends from the ATF, or the seller has an FFL. Yes, I know individuals may sell firearms privately, but selling more than one or two at a time starts getting towards the "dealer" line...

To: John Robinson
Look up the nearest gun shop (not a chain store) and call them. Explain what you have as best you can. Place the guns in the trunk of your car, wrapped in towels. Have the gun shop owner look them over, unload any that are loaded and give a value based on Fjestad’s Blue Book of Gun Values or a similar publication.
You might also pick up a copy of the book and look them up on your own.

but selling more than one or two at a time starts getting towards the "dealer" line... Have a dealer manage it as a consignment sale. If the buyer is not in California, it will require and FFL at each end anyway.
To: John Robinson
Ping me privately and let me know what you got.
I don’t live far from you en and can take them off your hands easily

Unloading is primary, but how you plan to transport them is key as regards legality.
You shipping them or driving them?
To: John Robinson
Walmart sells plastic hardcases for rifles and handguns. Several handguns will fit in one rifle case if need be.
Get some cheap padlocks while there and use them on the cases.
Before moving the guns, make sure they are pointed in a safe direction, and open the action on each one to make sure they are unloaded.On guns with “clips” (removable magazines) remove the magazines first. Be careful on guns with internal magazines that there are no rounds in the gun that will cycle into the action when closed.

I just heard from John. Unfortunately, they were lost in a boating accident. Thankfully, no one was hurt in the incident.
