Call a towing company. They can bring out a forklift on their roll back, load your parts, go to your storage, unload your parts and place them where you want them, and take their forklift and go home. Sometimes less headache is worth the extra money.
Hello, How do you move an engine to storage?

The shop have a forklift , they can put it in the truck, then I need a forklift to take it down once I’m at the storage facility. There is no storage facility that owns or have forklift , not to my knowledge.

Right, which is why my idea of simply hiring someone with the correct tools to complete the task would be the easiest and fastest solution.Vampire, Midwest Trucker and TX2Day Thank this.

You can’t use a regular pallet. You will have to brace it so it remains upright and you’ll have to make sure the pan isn’t supporting any weightTX2Day Thanks this.

So build like a wall with some 2x4, until it sit on the it, where it connects with the engine mount. The mecanic had it sit on the floor sitting on 2 used drums .
