Move heavy fish tank upstairs

$5

Throsby ACT, Australia

14th Nov 2024

Hi, I have a 4ft glass fish tank that I would like to be moved to the second floor If ur physically gifted and has a friend who is too then 2 people can move it. It took 3 physically ungifted ppl to move it to the garage on the same floor with breaks every 20 seconds. The tank will be drained. Firstly, the tank will have to be moved to a temporary location and the stand moved upstairs then the tank can be moved to its location on the stand upstairs. The stand is not heavy. 5$ is not the offer so please offer your own quote. please note due to some awkward manoeuvring you will have to do being able to lift the tank to chest height to get it to the final place is a must.

Awesome, efficient and punctual. Will hire again
