Thank you guys - I’m probably over-thinking this.  But 1400-1500lbs is not something I want to get in the way of. 

I’m going to try and call M&R today.

Jose Gonzales at M&R was very helpful about breakdown/crate info when I called.  I also asked if he could send a picture of a crated unit and he came through for me.

Good luck, and let us know how it turns out.

Just to follow up and close this out.  Wife and I made the trek to Atlanta area about a week ago. 

Seller arranged with someone next door to use his forklift.  I ended up taking off all of the pallet arms and 4 of the heads.  Took 3 of us to push it into my enclosed trailer on a pallet jack. 

All strapped in and away we went!

Appreciate the thought provoking advice.
