Hi Anatol,

too funny, I have been involved in 3 house moves, 2 in the US and one in the UK, there is nothing quite as strange as watching a house get towed down the street, and quite an engineering challenge.

Regards

Gerry

The home I live in currently was moved in 1975. Once we got it to the new location the moving company weighed it- I'll bet nobody else knows how much ther home weighs? Mine weighs 135 ton!!!!
