I had a crane move mine in, used NE Spas who subcontract out the job. Maybe give them a call and see who they use?

New England Spas-Boston Hot Tubs-Saunas of New England

problem is

the stairway off the Deck leads to a slope

instead of the flat ground unfortunately

hence the need for the crane method...

but
i priced materials tonight...

and for 160 clams i can buy enough 3/4 inch plywood
and ten foot 4x4's to build a bridge and make the
transition happen
along with some other timbers i have.

next i'll be pricing a flatbed from Penski that has the
forklift package.... and a 2500 lb lift gate

MISSION ACOMPLISHED

Raven to mission Control:

Standby - Huston ...... Jaccuzi 1..... HAS landed -Over
That's one Splash for The Raven Man, a giant leap for mankind-LOL

what a friggan Bear of a JOB: took four guys and a huge diesel pickup,
300 dollars of lumber and materials ,(which i'll re-use elsewhere)

2 1/2 days labor so far with another day or so still
to dissasemble the 16 foot mega ramp i built
and WE saved almost 8 hundred dollars.

PHEW glad thats DONE ...
