Looking to 'borrow' a flatbed truck/small crane combo.

    Hi folks,

    Mods - I have posted a similar request in the 'Transport' forum. If this is against the rules, please delete.

    I am moving house soon, and I have a small shed in the yard that I want to bring with me. At a push, I could probably dismantle it and reassemble it at its new location, but for various reasons I won't go into here, I'd rather not.

    What I really need, I reckon, is one of those flatbed trucks that has a wee built-in crane. Like the type that are used for transporting concrete blocks, although I've seen smaller ones on the roads that would suit perfectly. The shed isn't very big; only 8 ft x 6 ft.

    If anybody here owns or drives (or know someone who owns or drives) such a truck, would you like to earn a few bob on one of the next couple of weekends?

    I'm willing to pay for diesel and hopefully can agree a fair and reasonable rate with the driver for their time.

    The shed is currently on the outskirts of Cork, and will be taken to near Ennis.

    Please send me a PM if you can help.
    Or reply in-thread if you have any suggestions.

    Thanks.

    Edit: forgot to mention that the yard is enclosed by a fence, so I can't just lift it with a forklift.
