Moving company for large aquarium

I'm in the process of possibly buying a 265 gallon tank thats located in the Woodbridge, Va area. Anyone know of a realiable relative inexpensive moving company that I could possilbe use to move tank, stand and associated items to the Waldorf, Md area? Thanks in advance.

I have a listing up on there now for those tanks I got from the estate auction. I was going to go get them with my box truck but if I can get it cheap enough it will save me a trip. They have to be picked up on the 21st or 22nd. If you want I could get who ever wins to give me a price to add you to the route. It probably won't be much since they are already on the way. Most of them have 25 foot trailers so they would have extra space and love to add something to the load. JUst pm me if you want me to try to combine it with my load.

Terrell, a friend and I went to Philly to pick up a 265 gallon I bought on Sunday....when we pulled up he had the tank still on the stand...he said "were not taking the tank off the stand" I thought he was crazy...he starts rolling the tank and the stand out of his garage towards the truck...he had wooden dowels that you get at home depot under the stand...took it right to the back of the truck...we slide it off the stand and right into the truck...I was so glad we didn't have to carry that beast...It's sitting on the dowels in my dining room at the moment..

Two people moved my 265 when I bought it, and carried it up 7 steps and into my truck, granted one was 6'6" and the other looked like the Incredible Hulk...when I recently moved it to my new place it took 6 people....

If you need I have some industrial suction cups you can borrow. That's how my 630 was lifted off the floor and then on to a piano dolly

It took 4 of us Sunday night just to slide it off the truck and in my front door onto the dowels and then we rolled it into the dining room...glad I don't do that for a living...
