Need straight truck with liftgate and friendly dri

Hi all! It has been a while since I have been on EO. I have missed reading about you all.

I have a problem, am far up the creek, and I just watched not only the paddles go floating by, but now have a nice 12 inch tall water fountain shooting up from the bottom of the canoe (please remember, I am a newbie to this world and am asking for help). I need to move 2 pieces of computer equipment into storage from a customer of ours (a 6 block move) in Livonia MI (on 8 mile road near Farmington) on Monday, 2 days from now and it is Sat at 2:20pm now. I realize this is not a load board, but considering the helpfulness of everyone in the past, I guessed that someone might be between runs and would like to pickup some extra $.

The equipment is a total weight of 3500lbs and consists of 2 rolling cabinets that fit within a cube of 36" wide x 72 inches long x 72 inches tall for each piece. I can supply helpers to roll it into your truck and off your truck. I realize you all need to keep moving to make money and this is only a 6 block move.

I am willing to pay a full day's worth of your time for anyone with a liftgate and truck that can help us out.

Please contact me by phone at 586-207-5989 and leave a message if I am unable to answer.

Thanks for your time in reading this message....

On Plymouth Rd. just west of Farmington rd. is a Budget truck rental.
You can rent a truck there with a lift gate.



Good Luck,

P.S. it might be closer to Stark or Wayne rd.

THANKS!! I will pass that along to my techs there (I am stuck in Portland OR at the moment. Ever see 5 computer techs try to make toast? That is what this mess has been like for the last couple of days...LOL)

Best regards as always,

One thing to remember about moving computer cabinets is that they are top heavy and unstable. At the data center where I used to work an impatient Sun tech attempted to unload one himself, and was killed when it fell over on him.
