Hey Ray I like your dolly! I could use something like that to move the big
Surrette/Rolls batteries. Not nearly as big as a HUP but at 300+ lbs can be a
little hefty.

There are techniques for lifting heavy batteries. We use creative ramping,
hand trucks, slide plates, rollers, a winch, palette jacks and various
techniques to prevent back strain. With a little creative thinking you can

HI Ron;
We just use a big wheeled 2 wheel dolly for moving the Rolls, and L16s,
etc. We build little ramps etc for up and down stairs, take doors off
hinges, whatever we have to do to make the move safer, and do less
damage to the house. THe key is planning, prep, and then moving slowly

My favorite technique is getting the customer to take one of the two handles
while I take the other... but in a pinch, yes... I carefully life these alone.
They do seem to get heavier as I get older... lol

I have an old pair of commercial PVC rain gear bibs I use for L16s and smaller.. especially the slimy old nasty ones. I've had to disassemble HUPs and waltz them thru the house, but I agree, they're not that bad.. slow and steady is the best approach. And yes, the things I use to just throw around
