Let me start by saying thank you to anyone that can assist.

So this will be a two phase request.

Phase one: Aiming for 10/23.

Shift the aquarium to rollers in the driveway.

This is so I can access the cabinet pieces and put it together.

Phase 2: Aiming for 10/23 or 10/24

If 10/23, phase 2 will have to occur at minimum 5 hours after phase 1.

Move the tank onto the stand and push into corner.


The tank weighs 550lbs. I assume we can do it with 4-5 people.

Times are flexible, but if trying to knock it all out on 10/23 then it would be ideal if we could do early in the morning on 10/23.

Please let me know below if you’d be able to assist and with what phase.

Phase 1: 10/23 @ 10 am

Phase 2: 10/24 @ 4pm

San Jose, near the airport.


I will get bagels and coffee for morning crew, and pizza and beverages for phase 2 crew.
 
We have a friend coming in from out of town this weekend, but - if I can get a bit of time - I'll try to help in whichever phase(s) I can.

It’s a terrifying set up. The old owners didn’t vacate as planned and it cause huge problems for me getting stuff set up and we ended up having to move all in one late evening straight till 4am the next day.

If you need another set of hands for phase 1 I can swing by. I'll be in SJ in the morning for errands, including a stop by Neptunes, so i'll be in the area.

I am about 5 blocks from Neptune, less than a 5 min drive.

That would be a huge help, phase 1 shouldn’t be more than a few mins. It’s just transferring the tank to rollers and pushing it into the garage. It’s only about 10 feet from the garage right now.
 
Phase 1 group messages have been sent. Aiming for 10 am tomorrow morning.

Phase 2 is likely delayed unless there are 4 people that would be up for stopping by at 5pm tomorrow.
