I need to move a big screen TV down a flight of concrete stairs. The TV
is large, 4' tall, 2' thick and 4'+ wide. My guess is its about 200lbs
or more. When I brought the tv up the stairs it was in its packaging,
thick cardboard and we slid the box up the stairs. Well, now we can't.
It has wheels on the bottom that won't come off. There is no where to
handle the TV except the bottom. Does anyone have any ideas on how to
get it down the stairs without destroying the TV? I am wrapping the
outside in moving blankets and duct tape. Maybe some kind of straps
like piano movers use? Thanks in advance.

Try these arm straps (2/3 down the page):

They do make it easy!
