How many friends do you have? Eighteen of us carried my motorized 
HDX-555 from the front yard (which was as far as the tow truck I hired 
to take it off the flat-bed could get it before it sank into the wet 
ground) around to its new home at the back of the house using lengths of 
2x4 lumber through the tower. Undoubtedly we could have done the job 
with somewhat fewer people. My guess is that 30 able-bodied people could 
move yours.
