Default moving a guardian generator to it mounting location

I'm looking at what it would take to setup a 15kW generator for my home.
I do electrical work so wiring is not an issue but I do have a question
about how to move the 500lbs generator from the curve to the mounting
location. What kind of equipment can do this.

I was thinking a dolly with wide wheels but once I get it there how do I
get it to the slab?


If the delivery uses a fork lift, bribe with a beer or two for
them to move it to the slab. If not, 500 # is not that much.
patient use of blocks and lever will get it there. You may
well want to look into rubber mounts to bolt it to the slab.
