If the tree will fit upright through the garage and you can lay down substantial boards over any paved areas or lawns, could you not hire a pallet truck for this purpose?
I moved a EXTREMELY heavy AGA out of a house once this way, including over three thresholds, round a corner, out thep orch and down the gravel driveway.
Hi Adam, that's a good idea, thank you. I'll have to check the height of the tree first though!
We use 75mm round posts to move a customers large potted olives around their terrace, bit like a rolling road. These must be close to 200kg. But again depends if it will go up right through your access.
Another good idea. Thanks Glen.
Just a thought, how about a powered wheel barrow? Don't know how much they are to hire though.
Still got to lift it in there
you can get pot movers but i have not seen one that will lift 350kg
if you tie some hessian/sheeting round the top of the pot and lay it on its side a pallet truck or high ift pallet truck and a ply borded track to the hole might work
We've got access to a pallet truck so will try that approach. Tree foliage is protected so we can angle it or lie it down and then put down ply for the final section over soil. Fingers crossed we can move it from the delivery pallet to the pallet truck!
