Lounge moved/ lifted
$75
Clarkson WA 6030, Australia
4th May 2026
I have two lounge chairs (see picture) that I need moved forward. Then the two crates ( one each) put in the spot the chairs where. Both lounges then placed on the crates. ( the crates will act like a platform, they have been built to hold the weight and to the correct size, picture shows the bottom of the crates. The top has a solid, one piece of wood and is covered in carpet to protect the bottom of the chairs) They need to be lifted as with old age they sit to low and I find them hard to get out of. With platform put underneath, I will again be able to get out of them. Please note : the lounges are very heavy. I recommend two people or one very strong one. Don’t want lounges or person damaged.
Extremely helpfully. Went beyond. Looking forward to working with him again.
