Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire How to Move a Heavy Woodstove???

Matthew - get it moved?

I did.

A couple flat furniture dollies. 2 legs on the end of each of the dollies. Tied the 2 dollies together with 2x4s. Screwed some otehr boards in to keep the stove legs from sliding on the dollies while we are pushing/pulling it around.

I told the wife it usually is not good when you are taking a handyman jack into the house.

Had to jack each end up with the handyman to get it up on the dolly end.

Now some gal is about here and we are going to try and get the stove hoisted into the bed or her pickup with a nylon strap/sling and my old loader tractor.

This part probably scares me the most loading stuff with someone I don't know.

Good luck!

Done.

Except the old tractor sprung yet a bigger hydraulic leak now.

Ha!. We pulled the old cast iron furnace up the basement step on planks with an H Farmall.

You can get pretty creative when you don’t have any other options.

I know that this is too late to help with the removal, but hopefully it will help with the loading: we have found that liberal use of expletives as well as calling each other derogatory names helps a great deal in such endeavors. To make things run more smoothly, we have reached the point where we assign derogatory names before beginning so as not to cause confusion as to who is being addressed in the heat of action.
