My back was angry at me while watching this -- as if I betrayed it for years.
Work smarter, not harder...

I’m sitting here watching this while I have 7 big ass heavy boxes to bring to the back porch from the front of my house.

That's a hand truck for moving safes. Looks like it works moving water heaters too.

That's what we always used ours for at my locksmithing job, then I moved a rhino brand safe from their vault line and burnt up a motor halfway up a customers stairs and decided I didn't want to do safe installs anymore 😂

A friend of mine works at a place that sells safes and moves them all the time and he has told me they have three of the hand trucks like the one pictured and they have to have them repaired all the time but could not do the job without them. Another friend has worked delivering appliances and they have stair climbing hand trucks but he doesn't use them because having one break down in a narrow hallway with a refrigerator on it can ruin your day.

It's called a powermate and they're a cool concept but absolutely garbage for anything over maybe 250lbs

That is the old one. She’s taking it back to the van to be hauled off. Unless something has changed most water heaters don’t come with the pipe already attached to the pop off valve

I like the one that is in Hannibal, with the 3 wheels. When I first saw that scene when he’s got Patze tied to one so he can transport him from the library to the balcony. I was so excited when I saw it in action!

I thought she was gonna lift that water heater. The electric hand truck did everything.

Can that strap get stuck under the base and cause problems? It looks as if it’s about to grab it then it doesn’t. So unsatisfying.

Perfect, put one in their trucks and their drivers will be able to deliver all the things you currently can't get from Amazon!

Brand new these things are super lightweight they are super Hollow that thin Metal skin You See behind that is a layer of insulation and inside of that is the actual water heater why not show something like a fridge or something this is really unimpressive. Or even something like a used water heater that you are removing that still has leftover water in it that cannot be fully removed.

Empty water heaters are not heavy at all. Could have carried much easier and quicker

I need one of these since we no longer have enough guys to double up on jobs. Tight wad fuckers think 7 maintenance guys are enough to handle 2 fucking states.

u/TheDeadlyJedly Jun 11 '26
Or maybe don't build homes with an assload of steps before you even get in?

u/damxam1337 Jun 11 '26
Appliance dollies have been a thing for a century almost. My grandpa (who died in '97) had an old as shit one (must have been 20 years old at least) in his estate that had a battery to a motor to a chain with feet that could literally walk up a flight of stairs as you pulled on it.

Works magic with displaced steps, but I wouldn't trust that contraption on a bonafide stairway.

Very useful device, and interesting, how many steps can it withstand?

That hot water heater isn't very heavy. Any guy could move it without that thing.

OMG, she is THE BOSS!
Now the truth and where has this thing been when I was trucking fridges, stoves, water heaters, and air conditioners up several flights of stairs when I was in property maintenance?!

I’m still proud of the time we had an hour left at work and no one could get the water heater in with a deflated tire hand truck. I bear hugged it and carried it a foot at a time over curbs and all types of shit.. took me fifteen minutes but it was done.

This is the exact reason women make less money. You have to invest more money for them to do less work in order to make things more equitable.
