Default Muscles for frags

Hi Calgarians
I'm looking to come out to Calgary sometime at the end of this month (April 28, 29 or 30) to get a tank. The tank is currently in the basement of a residence located in the vicinity of Deerfoot Trail SE and 34 Ave SE. The tank is in the basement and it will need to be carried up 10 stairs where I will then use a dolly to wheel it to the vehicle and then it needs to be picked up and slid on the vehicle.
The unfortunate part is that this tank will weigh almost 700-800 lbs. I will bring another person with me and I will need an additional 3-4 people to help out. In return for your assistance, I will offer frags of my livestock.

Please PM if you can help.

PS - I do respectfully ask that if you have any pre-existing medical condition (ie back problems) that you refrain from offering to help - i would hate to see somebody get hurt doing this.
thanks

Thumbs up Sleigh

No problem I will help you, also I still have sleigh build from 4x4 in my garage witch one was use last time to bring downstairs my 350 gall tank, those sleigh can hold on their bed tank size up to 84”x24” maybe even 84”x36” height doesn’t matter. In my situation I use plywood on my hardwood stairs to protect them from scratching and my 900 lb. was slid down like a babe on banana skin. Only you have to organize some plywood if you plan to use those sleigh to put on stairs because right now I do not have any in my garage.
Is that help let me know?

I have seen and bought frags from Chin Lee and he has beautiful coral so what a great chance to get some great coral frags for some muscle power Calgarians.
