how did it turn out?
did you get it moved?

tommyinajar:

Anyone try these on a cabinet + stairs ? http://store.uhaul.com/Protective_stuff/Moving/Forearm_Forklift_Moving_Straps

daywane:

I have not.
I would only try it with my 7 yr older brother or my 7 yr younger brother.
I can move allmost anything with the right dolly myself.
I have asked for help with a very old Xerox machine.
I moved to 3rd floor. older brother broke a rib but never let go of Xerox
( I published a Atari  8 bit news letter at the time N.W.A.P.C)
I broke a rib moving My moms organ by my self.
I have now learned to only trust appliance dolly's for large items.
legs to long for the dolly? add 4x4 under the legs and add length to strap.
have help to lift up stairs, or have help to hold me back as going down stairs. going down I have some one  help hold dolly beside me or behind me. Never in front of me. and I use some one I can trust that will do anything to grab hold and save a life.
In the position the people are in the picture. I do not see that as a safe way to move a full weighted cab!

daywane:

I would like to have a set .
My wife could help bring in Dry wall, MDF, all kinds of stuff. Large Long Bulky stuff.
small foot print and heavy NO!
her tummy could not do it.
not sure I could eather.
I see it as the longer the item the better the lift with those straps.
I could be wrong but I will wait to be proving wrong
