M1079 Rear Stairs

[XCRV]

Does anyone know how much the stairs weigh? Any suggestions on how to ship them?

Mine are at a friend’s house in California but I’m in Texas. I want to auction the stairs to get them out of his way.

Kinda depends... Are your stairs aluminum or are they steel?

Aluminum. The handrails are in Louisiana so they won’t go with the stairs.

They have to go motor freight. I would guess stairs and pallet at 100 lbs.

I think the stairs are too long for a 48 inch pallet. Would be nice if they fit. I’ll ask my friend to measure. I don’t think he can weigh it because he has a neck problem. I’d rather him not lift it. I was hoping a freight company could pick it up at his house.

I expected the weight would be 30 to 40 pounds. I could almost handle it myself and I’m an out of shape, middle aged woman. My husband had no problem and he only weighed about 130 when we had the truck.

Update: I found a similar model on eBay that the seller plans to ship UPS Ground ($143 MN to TX). I’m surprised UPS would handle something that size. I’ll look into their requirements.
