<p dir="ltr">They are indeed monsters. When I bought the BSCs to bring up to Makerspace in victoria I looked pretty hard for a cheap or free way to move them myself. In the end I hired Corovan to do so. They had a nice device that looked like an engine hoist that would have let them lift it easily to put it on dollies. Except their nice device wouldn't fit in the elevator. So I ran off to harbor freight and bought a lift table which we were able to put under the BSC and with some blocks of wood for extra height lift up off its base then lower it onto dollies on each side of the lift table. The weight somewhat exceeded the 800 pound capacity of the lift table I got but with a person at each corner to help lift and stabilize it worked OK. Doing it again I would get the larger lift table for ~$250 rather than the 800 pound one that cost about $150.</p>
