Anyone free tomorrow (4-24-12) to help me pick up a large acrylic aquarium?

[anathema]

I need help lifting a 300+ gallon acrylic tank. Two people plus me should be able to do it. We'd need to lift it from the stand, onto my car, then unload it onto a furniture dolly at my house, and roll it to my storage room. Pick up is near Aquatic Central, drop off is in the Mission SF.

Yes, I know short notice, just thought I'd give it a shot. This can happen anytime people have free time during reasonable day hours.

If anyone has the time to help me out, please respond here. I'll buy you pizza at my local pizza shop for the help.

Higher a moving company. They are insured if anything goes wrong and you save your back!

Hmm why didn't I think of that!

I got your back right here! LMK

And at the right time, I can get more bodies to assist.

What time?

I wish I could help but can't today.

Also I'll pay $25 to anyone who shows up to load it in the truck.

I send positive vibrations.
Make sure those movers are insured!
And don't pay them until the job is done to your satisfaction!

Tank is loaded. It's a free tank so no big loss if it's dropped. So far so good.

Thanks for the replies.

And it's done.

Sorry if this seems rushed and last minute, I thought the guy had changed his mind and then he called and needed it moved right away or he was going to chop it up and trash it. Now I have a prop tank! Propped right up against the wall. That's how you do it, right?

Now get some water in it!!

I hired a mover from CL, but if anyone is free for ten am we will be loading the tank. Yes short notice so I don't expect anyone to be able to make it. No worries.

My phone is *deleted* and the tank is about two blocks from aquatic central, just off ocean ave.

Not for a long time! A tank that big is a bit much in an apartment.
