wrote Re Pulling a toilet?:

A pill vial got caught in my toilet and it looks like removing the toilet is
the only way to get it out. I replaced one 10 years ago, so I know it is
not all that hard, but I really don't remember much about it.

Can one person do it, or will I need help?

I just pulled & replaced mine a few weeks ago. I wouldn't try it by
myself, not because the commode is so very heavy, but it is awkward to
handle. My wife was able to help me so the pickup/replacement was easy
with one of us on each side. But then she has gotten quite strong
after many years of beating me up :-)

What supplies will I need? (I am 25 miles from a store, so I would like to
have everything...) Presumably a wax ring, are they one size fits all?
Anything else?

That should do it. Make sure the replacement hold-down nuts/bolts are
not missing from the ring box.

I vaguely remember that the nuts and bolts were rusted into one piece and I
had to break the base up with a hammer. Fortunately these nuts look brand
new so it should be much easier.

see above.
