Folks,

I have to move a 2" machine (MCI JH-24) from CT to Nova Scotia. Can anyone with experience recommend the best way to do this?

I see my options as:

1) Hiring moving professionals. I'm a little worried it might get roughed up in the process.

2) Rent a van and move it myself. I'd still need pros to help with the loading and unloading. This sucker weighs over 500 lbs.

Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you!

Wrap it and crate it yourself, then have a shipping company take it from you. It'll take you a day to do it properly, but you'll be glad you did.

Do not try to move it "naked" unless you're going to drive it there in a van yourself.

I moved an MCI JH24 from the US to Sweden.

The shipping company took care of the crating, and did a great job. I think the crating cost something around $150.

They put the remote in the same crate as the machine, and bubbled-wrapped everything real nice.

So if you can find a shipping company that can also do crating, I think that's the best way, since it's not alot of money.
