Seems to be a case of "Pot Luck" when it comes to carriers.During two house moves [never again ! ],I moved my Craftsman lathe and my Lux mill,pillar drill,saws,planer,spindle moulder,ect,in my Hi ace van,with the help of two friends. With the lathe stand removed we were able to get it up a flight of steps and into the van,intact. Same with the mill.Took a few runs,but nothing was damaged,or lost.
I believe it,s better to hire a van,or flat bed truck,round up a few friends and do it yourself [fill them with drink afterwards,not before ] That way,you can have some control over the move.
Unless these people are experienced in handling machinery, they are best left alone. They may not understand how easy it is to ruin a good machine.
