Help!!


I need advice on moving the 300g tank from the freight terminal to my house:

They called me today and it is waiting for me to pick up.

My options are:

1. Pay someone to pick it up and place it in the house on the stand. I will need contact numbers so I can get quotes.
2. Get my own equipment and some friends to help move it. I will need more friends and I have no idea on what equipment can move a pallet that is 11 feet long, 4 feet wide and 5 feet high and weights about 750 lbs. I guess the pallet has the tank hood on the tank. Not sure. I know the tank size is supposed to be 96x24x31.

Anyone with experience in these matters please reply. I need to make a decision on what to do and who to call.

Thanks,
David

Thanks Tim, do you have anybody in mind? That's why I posted to get contact information from people who have done this before. I have move a 240g glass tank with me another guy before but we needed four people to get it on the stand.

This one will be heavier.

Anyone with contact numbers from LFS that will pick up and install or numbers for equipment places and what will be needed to do it myself will definately help.

Thanks,
David
