Move heavy pool table

Hawker ACT, Australia

Legs need to be undone to move table top. It is a heavy top. It needs to be carried from my garage to the deck. We did do it before. 3 or 4 strong guys would take a few minutes to move. Then legs screwed back on. I'd say max 20 minutes.
These are the best team.

Help with moving a few heavy awkward items.
$200
Turner ACT, Australia
22nd May 2025
Just need some expert help with moving some heavier items - only moving a kilometre or so, and job should take no longer than an hour or so. No stairs at old place (lift and easy access through front of building), but one set of stairs (about 20 or so at new place) at new place, and would prefer someone with experience to move these objects up and into the new place. Key items we are asking for assistance with moving are: - An electric piano (This is heavy - about 60 - 80kg and will need specialist dolly/equipment to get up stairs) - Fridge - Washing Machine - Lounge (splits into a couple of parts, but has an electric recliner in one end that makes it heavy). Ideally you will have your own truck to do the move of those items - but we will have access to a hire truck for some time early on Saturday 31 May if necessary. Needs to be completed either the afternoon of Friday 30th May, or anytime on Saturday 31st May. Experience moving pianos is essential - it is going to be difficult to move up the stairs, so want someone that knows what they are doing so to ensure it is not damaged. Pickup location: Turner ACT, Australia Drop-off location: Turner ACT, Australia Removals size: A few items Stairs: At delivery Any questions/clarifications please send them through.
Got the job done well in the end - thank you.
