Creative ideas to roll a BJ3 down this porch?


Long story short I’m picking up yet another BJ3. Challenge is this porch. It’s on their deck so it needs to go through the house and down this porch.

It’s gonna be in total 4 of us. We could probably just carry the thing but the thing is how? No handles whatsoever. Carry it while on the cart?

I thought about getting a ramp but I won’t be able to secure it as it requires drilling.

I’ll be bringing over a 5×9 uhaul trailer with a ramp to transport the grill. Thought about resting the ramp on the porch and just roll over the BJ but not sure I’ll be able to pulll this off.

Thought?

    I suggest a shoulder dolly, have the beefiest two carry it in the sling, and the other two can stabilize, clear paths, open doors, etc

    A piece of plywood and some cut up 2x4s to make a ramp?

    Or disassemble and reassemble at home. Just secure the hinge first with the bolt thingy.

    I would definitely disassemble it first. That will make a noticable difference in weight.

    Take out the internal components and you can probably lift it down those two stairs pretty easily

    Through the house?? Did they build the house around the joe?

    Take out the internals, pull it out of the cart, and you can likely carry it. That’s how my dad and I moved mine.

    Consider renting a heavy duty dolly and load/unload ramp if they are available in your area. I’ve done it to move my KJ and other heavy and bulky items.

    Hit it at enough speed and it should be fine
