How many men needed to bring a fridge up the stairs, from the
basement. Using a rental handtruck designed for this, with
a strap etc.

How many men needed if the first ones are in good shape and
83, 72, and 62 years old?

Let the 83 year old be the straw boss.

I'm 66 and I moved one up flight of stairs last year with the
help of my 17 year old son.

Just put a blanket underneath it to protect the stairs and
pull it up. It's not that heavy.

One mistake I made was to do it while my childbride was home.
