Default Now bandsaw - how to move


I just had a bandsaw delivered. I expected it to be delivered upright
on a pallet but it's laying down, fastened to a long pallet. It was
going to be a problem to move into place but as it is, it's going to
be really unwieldy. I'm kinda stumped.

The problem is that it's in my garage and, somehow, I need to get it
into my basement. Fortunately I have a walk-out basement but the door
is in the back of the house and no paved access to the rear. I could
assemble the saw in the garage and move it but it would probably be
better to move it in its shipping packaging. The shipping weight is
440lbs. so it's not going to be easy. Ideas? I thought about hiring
a piano mover but thought the folks here would have some other good
ideas.
