    My dolly has inflatable tires and shipping weight is just shy of 500 lbs. And the ramp on our trailer is really steep.

    I probably have the same dolly. Tires would lose pressure all the time. I just reinflated them using this product around the bead. Seems to be doing okay.

    SD Steve , can you live stream the stove drag back to the house? Many of us would probably like to see it as it happens and even provide commentary..

    Hey, there's plenty of guys on here that move wood on sleds (or dray Backwoods Savage ) so it should work fine for a stove too :handshake:

    My old Clydesdale insert has been sitting in this dolly for like 6 months because I’m too lazy to post it for sale. I’m sure yours can handle it, just pull the door and the bricks out.

    I dunno......but I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. :doh:

    After investing the time and $$$ into that wood stove, I sure as hell wouldn't be caught trying to drag it along on the shipping pallet........a pallet that is designed to be raised and carried. I've seen too many pallets that have crappy boards in them that just bust.

    Get you trailer dug out and buy a couple planks to eliminate the steep ramp on it. Grab some lengths of old boiler pipe from work and roll the stove up (and down) those planks on the trailer! :handshake:
