[QUOTE="Whither, post: 4350673, member: 76643"] Usually it's possible to use the handcart/existing equipment or get help on site to deal with the damn things. Usually. I [I]probably should have[/I] called for help in this case, since the consignee had an injured wrist. But it went down like this: after I stopped, he hailed me from the porch and volunteered to help. I pushed the treadmill out the passenger door. He made it down the stairs and [I]then[/I] told me about his wrist. I wavered about it; he insisted he'd be fine and started helping anyway. I'm sure I would've abandoned the attempt if I had tried it on my own. We got it done without any lawsuits. In any case, given how steep and tall the staircase was, it would never be a [I]particularly[/I] safe lift for a 5x3ft 120lb object. [/QUOTE]
