So for a while I have been working on finding someone to deliver this 8ftx2ftx2ft glass tank, for my monitor lizards.
Luckily I got a cheap deal on it and someone to drop it off for a good price too. After picking it up last night, the guy came and dropped it off this morning and it took about 45 minutes to get it out of the van, because the three of us couldn't lift it, so the guy driving the van had to call his buddy. And finally we got it out but the delivery guy basically said he had had enough, and now the tank is just sitting in the driveway with no way to get it inside.
Has anyone else had this problem, when an enclosure is just too rigid and difficult to move?!
The whole tank only ways 120kg but I think it's how the weight is spread out and the length that makes it so heavy to carry.
So with no one else to help us lift this tank, I'm going to have to head out to bunnings soon to find some sort of trolley. And hopefully we can manoeuvre it up the steps..
I'm starting to feeling like this tank was more trouble than its worth.
