[Closed] How am I going to move this?

round stakes..... roll it

Use a bigger hiab

+1 wot stompy said

Ask Ton, he might do it.
Failing that, get 2 wide planks & some short scaffy bars & roll it. You might have a job rolling it just on the grass, hence the planks.

Just pick it up? Are you some kind of pussy? Lift from your back, not your knees. You also have a higher chance of lifting it if you use sharp, fast jerking motions.

rushians can send monkys to the mune but u cant muv a duk pond ackross ur gardn u nede 2 mtfu cavmen culd muve that !@#$

Lube! Lots of lube!

😆 😆 😆 @ pigyn

4 guys and carefully upend it, flip it, upend ,flip etc etc.

I moved some chuffing huge tree trunks across our garden by sliding them stonhenge/caveman style across the garden. Used two big bits of wood as "runners" and sort of levered it to slide along them.

Ignore it. Just some asshat alter-ego of someone on here. Painfully unfunny.

@scotia..

Russian more like.

ask the guys wot shifted the bluestone from Pembrokeshire to Salisbury Plain.
Rolled them on logs IIRC

Take the water and pebbles out. Should be easy then.

Yup. It's so contrived, it makes me want to find him and punch him right on his nose.

Insert the CRACK! at any point in between this.

Yup rollers is your best bet and a lever.

you datz haterz need to get out a bit more

Who is it anyway?

It would be OK if it was either funny or clever. It's neither, just embarrassing.

I helped my dad shift a few of those that were about 1/4 of the size, ****in heavy lumps! Just get more hands on deck. call in favours, etc.

aww leave poor mark datz alone, he can't help itz.

bring in the expert

nice, lol!

pallet truck

Dont forget, talcum powder on your hands before lifting it.

rollers idea as above,
linear poles, greased, block and tackle to pull
- take a while but - trolley jack and rope lift one end, swivel as far as you can, down, other side, repeatez etc (can do this with levers as well, man on each side levering up swivelling on edge etc etc)
- can you get it up on one end and walk it on the corners

Move the house to the trough.

break it up into bits.
carry them in your rucksack.
instant rock garden section, anywhere on anytrail.

I think you need to sort out your priorities to be honest. The lawn for starters. That house sold sign is the wrong way around too. That flowerbed could use some work, and the wall a good scrub.

Then what pigyn said.

When we were trainees they had us move 3/4 ton transformers by hand. Rollers are the way but there is a knack. You only need two rollers (inch diameter steel bars are probably best), plenty of wooden planks to spread the load and a couple of mates so you don't struggle - couple more steel bars as levers can help. The real issue will be getting it on to the rollers in the first place - we used little hydraulic jacks, but transformers have lifting points.

Is there an engine hoist big enough you could hire?
Lift, swing around, put down. Repeat as required.

Just get the wife to move it.

wait till the winter build up a bit of an ice run on the grass 😉
daft but not as daft as it sounds eh?

I've got a bone in me leg

i'm pretty strong, i'll move it for ya.

As said before, the scaffold poles, planks of wood and a large pry bar. Lay the scaffold planks down, pry bar it (after dumping the water and rocks) on to the 1st scaffold pole and keep edging it forward on to more scaffold bars ( at least 3 under it at one time) then pry it forward on to another and put the last in front and repeat. It will be a case of where it lands is where it lands but you can get it pretty close.

How much can an engine hoist lift? Stick some planks down to roll it along?

How did you get it there in the first place?

It's already on a pallet, get a pallet truck from your local hire shop & a few planks to run it on, Bob's your uncle (other gender assignations are available).

The one we've got at work it rated to 500kg, but it stops about 2ft from the ground. Plus I bet the wheels would sink into the lawn.
Prybars and rollers I reckon is your best bet.

there is always a way 🙂
