Richard are you Eves husband? Just asking so I know your location, if so you are right down the street from me. I think I can give you a hand with the move.

i might be able to help let you know by thurs, i have some buckets and a 65 gallon rubbermaid bin with a lid also
4fun
Mon, 28th Sep 2009, 02:58 PM
Ok this is what i have ready for Sat:
2 32gallon trash cans w/lids on wheels
5 5 gallon buckets 3 w/lids
3 18 gallon bins with lids
1 small trailer 6x10 not too high off the ground
should i look for suction cup handles to carry that monster
and any other suggestions
Big_Pun
Mon, 28th Sep 2009, 03:04 PM
hardest part will be the hand off thru the door
RayAllen
Mon, 28th Sep 2009, 03:27 PM
Ive moved a few large aquariums of 200gs and up and
suction cups will make it easier but are not necessary.
I think if you have 4 guys yourself included you will be set. The more the better....
6 of us moved Mike and Kristys 210
2 of us moved my Dads tank- we got the job done but is sucked.

Mon, 28th Sep 2009, 03:27 PM

Hey guy,
I'm in. Especially if there's food. :)
If you're going to do this early that's great, I think I can swing by and pick up a dozen krispy kremes at 5am on my way over... :)

CoryDude
Tue, 29th Sep 2009, 01:44 PM
Richard, does this mean your addition is done? Last time we talked, you were removing an old deck, where the new slab was going to be.
You're literally right up the street from me. Let me know if you need an extra hand this Sat. morning.
