DinasourI must be a dinosaur, put mine on my dinghy trailer and rolled it around in back where it needed to be. Tilted the trailer and un-cranked the winch. Took a bit to get it set right on the platform but hey done in an hour.

Not dinosaur; practical and self-reliant. Well, maybe that does make us dinosaurs...??? Don't get it, I spelled it right ... Even if I did use google to check it
I said Dinosaur because I still do mostly everything myself, too cheap to pay anyone for what I can do myself.
That makes sense. I would have guessed the crane would have been a lot more expensive.This is how I had my hot tub put into my backyard. To get it back there without the crane would have required going up a berm then moving it over uneven, rocky ground behind 2 4-unit townhouses until you got to my back yard. The rent on the crane was only $150 (granted that was 5 years ago, could be more now). So, not a completely unreasonable thing to do.

You're right. There was a semi with pads and weights. And, the truck with the swim spa.$150.00? We don't start the engine for under a 4 hour minimum. Our cheapest crane is around $1200.00 for the 4 hours. The crane in the picture should have a separate truck that came with it to haul the counterweights. All our guys are union and that job depending on how far away from crane yard was (2 guys, semi truck, crane, permits) probably pushing $3,000.00.
That's big! Way cool!View attachment 136245
This is our newest crane, bought in June for 1.3 million

This is out biggest, it was 3 million. The trailer was $120,000 and it needs 4 of them to haul the counterweights.
It would take alot of $150 hot tub jobs to pay for it.
