It is on the main floor, which was less of an issue with a good appliance dolly. Itis going down the hill I am worried about.

If it was a smaller 200-300 lb I could see moving it

I helped a lot of moves in the past 20 years. I finally paid a moving company last year for the first time, and it was definitely worth it.
I just don't get the $240 an hour (billed from the time they leave their building to the time they get back to their building) and I think that is grossly overpaying to move one item, especially since they could take as long as they want to.

I believe in doing stuff myself when able as it usually is done better.

That was my first thought as that is what it was delivered on, but still have an issue as soon as I get on grass, and a hill.

Come to think of it, they are building a house a half block away from me... wonder if they would use one of the forklifts to assist for $100. Then it is just moving it normally.
