Hello does anyone know of a company that moves exercise equiptment? I have an elliptical that needs to be moved from our garage to upstaris. 2 of the arms need to be removed and then put back on. Called some moving companies but they don't want to take the arms off and another company was $400 - looking for something a little more reasonable. thanks

maybe a couple neighbors can help you out...ask to buy them lunch or something (beer). i wouldn't see the need to hire a moving company to move something from your garage to the upstairs.

Thanks - it is more about taking the arms off so it will fit and there are some wires it looks like will need to be reconnected. Wish it just fit through the door with the arms on it.

Move it yourself. Consider it your work out.

It's not that difficult to do. 2 guys should suffice, and 3 can easily do it. Just be careful taking it apart and note how it all joins together. If you have an engineer friend, let him help.

Make sure to take a bunch of detailed pics before you disassemble it. May come in handy.
