Picking up my 500 gallon tank on Friday
« on: March 06, 2013, 12:47:31 AM »
My 500 gallon tank is suppose to be ready and I've booked a cargo van rental to go pick it up from Cleveland on Friday.   ;D

I do need help unloading it from the van and into my garage at 5pm on Friday (I need to return the van by 5:30).  Should be a total of 10 minutes worth of effort.  I don't know how many people will be needed but I would prefer 3 plus myself.  Anyone willing to stop by and help unload this?  Purty please!
