Robert Jones Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 I should probably leave this to Kurt since he is very familiar with China, however, I would guess a large one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 What are you planning on towing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Hockstein Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 Try your local U Haul center. They know all about do-it-yourself moving. Good Luck. PS-Please post an update on this forum and let us know where and when you are planning to move the house so we can know where not to be.

Jim Baird Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 I rented a cpl of piano dollies when I moved an old upright...won't ever do that again, tho. A guy I knew who bought a house to be moved could not find a contractor so he went and bought a cpl of steel I beams about 75 ft long and somehow got it done. BTW permits to get something that big on the hiway might be diff to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtblum Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 What type of tow dolly would one use to move to their new house? They do it all the time, China. LOL! Me too. Make sure you don't void the warranty on your vehical by towing with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
china045 Posted December 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Thanks for the advice people. I went to u haul and asked about there's but I have had a problem with them before. See the lights didn't work on it I got stopped by the cops who was very aggravated. I'm also looking into purchasing a used one. Might be my best bet but not a u haul one.

You might find it much simpler and a lot less aggravating than pulling a trailer behind your car. http://www.pods.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
china045 Posted December 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 I have never heard of a pod. Sorry if I sound stupid but what is a pod???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 You're kidding, right? You've seen them every day. If you'd googled "Pods" its the first result. Click here ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, several of those who responded to this thread thought she was *from* China (its just her username) and thought that she wanted to know about *moving* her house (she asked about moving *to* her house).

Brandon Whitmore Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 and thought that she wanted to know about *moving* her house (she asked about moving *to* her house). I remember reading the original post soon after submission, and am fairly positive that the "to" was added. I may be wrong-- I didn't spend much time reading the post because I thought it was yet another link dropper, and that one of you moderators pulled the link.
