Moving Chicken Coop To New House

[Wxguru]

Weight is the problem here....I have a 8X5 coop, and with the roof on it, I bet it weighs in close to 750lbs. Has to be close. You are going to need a good crew to lift that puppy up

How tall is it?

I think a flatbed would be the only thing it would fit on.

I meant would you be able to lift it on the truck.

It is 8' 4" tall. I ever thought about getting it on the trailer. Couldn't you put cender blocks under the trailer wheels, leave it in hitched and pull the tractor up with a pickup. I am so glad I put this on Backyard Chickens!!! Thanks for all your help!!!

What about rolling it into a uhaul? Or a uhaul trailer?

 

[TexasChicken12]

I don't know if it would fit in a uhaul. If it would they would be great!

Nuts...uhaul is 8ft3"...

But the have trailors too

If it is going down the road and roof is on it....you could lose the entire thing, or have the roof tear off if you are going too fast...slow as you go if you do it all intact

We do have a tin roof over the whole thing. Thanks! That is good advice!!! I am so glad I put this on here!!!
