Moving a 480 lb Wood burning Stove UP a Flight of Stairs (DIY Heavy Lift)

Описание: Moving a 480 lb Wood Burning Stove UP a Flight of Stairs (DIY Heavy Lift)
Ever wondered how to move a massive, 480-pound wood stove without a crew of people? In this video, I'm taking you step-by-step through the process I used to get this beast of a stove up a flight of stairs and into my house.

This wasn't a job for the faint of heart, but with the right tools and a little bit of ingenuity, it's absolutely possible to do it yourself. I'll show you exactly how I moved this stove from my garage, across a concrete sidewalk, and up a tricky set of stairs.

My tool setup included:

A floor jack to get the stove off the ground.

Small, individual dollies for each foot of the stove.

A chain hoist and a ratchet cable hoist working together in a line to pull the stove up the stairs.

A 1,000-pound furniture dolly positioned at the base of the stove to provide support and stability.

I'll walk you through the entire process, sharing the challenges and the solutions I came up with to safely and effectively get this incredibly heavy wood stove where it needed to go. It's a high-stakes, DIY project that proves you can accomplish even the most intimidating tasks with a smart plan.

Important disclaimer: This is a "do at your own risk" project. Heavy lifting and using hoists can be dangerous. Always prioritize safety and make sure your equipment is rated for the weight you are moving.
