    Just wait until a hard heavy rain storm passes through. You'll get motivated then!

    Between the two of you, it shouldn't present a problem. You have mentioned "we" in a few of your threads. Don't know if we is a spouse, SO, child, or what.

    Just get it raised a bit and start walking it. I think the stove itself is attached to the shipping pallet, right? Use this to your advantage.
    Like other have suggested, use a system of rollers to move it along and then lever it up any stairs...deck? A furniture dolly would be a great help for you also-for the flat parts.

    Beer is the great liquid motivator :drunk:

    There is no "we" here; I might have mention we in a generic way or maybe when my NJ friend was here. I don't really have anyone local to call on. My sister lives around 20 miles or so from me so may see if she can help. I woke this morning with my back again; I damaged my back when we set the house up. I am hoping my back will ease off so I can finished the chimney because we are suppose to get two days of rain coming in. I was hoping the stove would be inside before it rain but hopefully I can keep it dry.

    Right where I want to be.
    Can you put the original wrap back on for a minute?
    Even a couple big trash bags split open along the seams would work.

    I left my New Buck stove on my trailer outside for more than a week, covered with tarps, it rained on it plenty but all was fine...

    I have some large contractor garbage bags; so hopefully they will work.

    I moved a 8' X 8' shed by myself with a car jack and 2 or 3" PVC pipe. You can do it easily enough. Plan it out. Use ramps and a little rope if you need to. A come-along would be great but isn't necessary.

    Also, if you have a appliance store close by, go get a refrigerator box and along with the bags, put the box over everything, that will definitely keep it dry for a short time.

    It came with a box over the stove; so will put that back in place.
