Recently bought a (72x24x24) 180 Marineland RR. It's sitting in my living room on the ground floor and I need to get it down two sets of carpeted stairs (6 steps each) and put onto the tank stand which is already down in my finished basement.

With myself and two to three others moving it should be a 15 minute task. Happy to throw cash your way for the support. I am recently relocated to Colorado and unfortunately have no contacts in the state. I'm open to move any time after 5PM Mon-Fri or any weekend.

Thanks in advance!

Make a cheap wood sled. It will help a ton. I have one you can use but I am up north in loveland.

I'll throw out a date to see if anyone else is available. How about Saturday afternoon (June 29th)? It will give me an excuse to stop by Aquatic Arts while I'm down that way.

I could do this day in the afternoon.
2pm or later would work on my end. I work in the AM.

Saturday the 29th after 2PM works for me, I am free all day. If that's good for you both I'll PM you my address and cell phone # for logistics. Thank you both so much for the kind offer. I'm not very strong, but three of us should be able to manage but a fourth hand wouldn't hurt... :)

Yes please! I will PM my phone number and address now. Thank you again all. I also posted on Nextdoor for any local help but no bites.

I actually had an offer from someone local to support on Saturday come through oddly enough, so we now have 4 able bodied dudes. I'll confirm on Saturday once the tank is moved so mods can close thread.

Thank you both for your help today, you made it an absolute breeze and it was a pleasure to hang out for a bit after! I look forward to seeing you all at the next club meeting. @mods - please close/lock thread.
